March 10 Joe and Hazel Cook – Beekeeping

13 October 13 Marian Jean “Dahlias” October 13, 2020N/A Marian’s first memories of dahlias are in her grandfather’s Scotland garden where the plants held their beautiful blooms well over her head. She discovered the incredible variety of dahlias while looking for ‘Jessie G’ as a gift for her mother, Jessie Giles. This began the obsession which created Oakridge Dahlias, which now grows over 900 dahlias annually (about 500 varieties) south of Peterborough. http://www.oakridgedahlias.ca/ October 13 Marian Jean “Dahlias”
