President’s MessageSome of my happiest memories are from time spent in the garden with my grandmother, father, children and now grandchildren. My journey down the garden path led me to Garden Club, Master Gardeners and writing a column about gardening for a newspaper. Gardening and TGC Inc. have given me countless hours of joy. Now that path has led me to the Presidency of TGC Inc.

In honor of Past President Nita Harmon (1959-61), who was instrumental in achieving the building of our state head-quarters, I have chosen to incorporate her theme. Her vision of TGC Inc. was: “To Preserve the Past, Serve the Present and Insure the Future.” Her vision of our organization is just as ap-propriate today as then.

We are facing many challenges as an organization after go-ing through a pandemic and the devastating ice storm Uri. My main goal as President will be to work with clubs to encourage them to go forward and thrive, adding new members to their rolls.

I will be promoting education through support of our NGC Inc. Schools and Scholarships. In addition to supporting education, I plan to encourage our members to support NGC’s Plant America – Play Outdoors and SCR’s Penny Pine. I will urge our members to reach out to our youth with the Smoky the Bear and Woodsy Owl posters.

Since I am from the city of Beeville in the County of Bee and the Great State of Texas, one of my main goals is to encourage our members to plant for our pollinators – native bees. Without bees, our agricultural industry and the food we eat would face dire circumstances.

We face many challenges but as an organization fi lled with talented members we can ac-complish anything!

With Regards,

G��� D�W��

South Central RegionI’m delighted to have many Texans serving on the SCR Board of Directors for the 2021-2023 term. Some are old friends; many are new friends. I’m especially thankful to the Texas dynamo, Linda Jean Brown! Her boundless energy and will-ingness to help are inspirational. So, a public thank you to Linda Jean! As the SCR Youth Awards Coordinator, I know Linda Jean will create renewed interest in our youth awards. I look forward to all we can do with our youth contests un-der her leadership! The focus at the beginning of our term is Scholarships! We kicked off our scholarship fundraiser “SCR Gardening Hero” in Oklahoma by honoring Donna Marsheck and Mary Jean Easterling. Since returning home from the OKG Convention we have fi ve new SCR Gardening Heroes from Arkansas that will be honored at our AFGC Convention in August and all will be honored in April 2022 at our SCR Convention in Galveston. I expect several more in Arkansas before August.

In every club and district there is someone who has provided outstanding service deserving honor. Someone who has worked unselfi shly to promote our goals, someone who invited you to become a member, mentored you, encouraged you. Please, Texas, help us to further horticultural education, conservation, and landscape design by participating in our “SCR Gardening Hero” eff ort to fund our scholarship! State garden clubs, districts, local clubs, or individuals may honor a person as an SCR Gardening Hero with a $100 donation to the SCR Scholarship fund. Each honoree will receive a certifi cate and recognition at state and region conventions, in the Communicator, SCR Website and Facebook Page. QUALIFICATIONS: All members of garden clubs in the four states of South-Central Region are eligible to be hon-ored as SCR Gardening Hero. Please send your tax-deductible donation of $100 to SCR Gar-dening Hero Chairman (Nancy Voyles, 2926 Hwy 75, Parkin, AR 72373) and include a paragraph describing the impact of the honoree. Checks should be made to SCR Scholarship Fund. The chairman will prepare the certifi cate and arrange for recognition at state and region conven-tions and SCR publications. You will fi nd the entry form in the April 2021 issue of “The SCR Communicator” or you may contact your state president or me to have the form emailed to you!

National Garden Clubs, Inc.NATIONAL GARDEN WEEK

PROCLAMATION

Whereas, Gardeners have a passion for nurturing the beauty and resources of the earth through the planting of seeds, the care of all plants and the riches of their efforts; and

Whereas, Gardeners seek to add beauty, splendor, fragrance and nutrition to our lives through the growing of herbs, vegetables, foliage and flowers; and

Whereas, Gardeners work to preserve our country's traditional spirit of independence and initiative through innovation and hard work; and

Whereas, Gardeners advocate the importance of all creatures, large and small, that share our world and their roles in a balanced and productive ecology; and

Whereas, Gardening furnishes a challenging and productive activity for our citizens, for those just learning as well as those having years of experience; and

Whereas, Gardening promotes a healthy lifestyle that lasts a lifetime, helps reduce stress from other areas of our life, teaches that rewards can come from diligent efforts; and

Whereas, Gardening enables members of Garden Clubs across the nation and the world to make a world of difference in the communities where they reside and work;

Now, Therefore Be It Resolved that in an effort to acknowledge the importance of Gardening and the numerous contributions of Gardeners, National Garden Clubs, Inc. designates the week of June 6-12 as National Garden Week.

Mary Warshauer,2021-2023 President, NGC, Inc.

Shutterbugs – Take Center StageBy Marlene Gillman

Do you have garden pictures stashed on your phone or camera disk waiting to be shared? Now is your chance to showcase your prize photos with other gardeners. District V, hosts for the TGC 2022 state convention in Austin, is planning a “Garden Photo Exposition” for the event. The purpose is twofold: First – we want a new take on showcasing our passion for gardening and almost everyone has pictures to share. Second – The entire show will be care-fully packed for later display at our headquarters when the botanic gardens have a special weekend event in which we wish to open our doors and participate. This is a great opportu-nity to show our horticulture, gardens, and special interests in a new and beautiful manner in our headquarters setting.

This is notice to take your cameras with you when you garden this summer and carefully sort your existing photo library for suitable entries “now” to be ready in the spring. The rules are simple:

1. Photo must be taken by the entrant.2. Print can be color or black and white.3. Print size must be 8 x 10 – matted (of your choice) to 10 x 12 4. Easels will be provided5. Entries will not be returned – make a copy

The categories are as follows:1. Exclusive to single horticulture specimen2. Container or window box of varied horticulture specimens3. Garden shots – home or public4. Yard art in garden setting5. Birds and Butterflies6. Pets and/or wildlife in the garden

This is a fun and inexpensive way to have a unique show with a second life at our head-quarters. The Killeen Garden Club is taking lead for this endeavor. Entry information will be forthcoming as convention nears. For more information, call or email Marlene Gillman at 254-628-7762 or [email protected].

A Suggestion from Better Homes and GardensWaste not! “I tend to make the same miscalculation every year, planting more tomatoes (and cucum-bers and squash) than my family can keep up with. To ensure none of our excess goes to waste this summer, I’m bookmarking the site AmpleHarvesting.org a nationwide directory of food banks where you can donate fresh produce (many pantries accept only canned goods). It’s a great way to pay your gardening exuberance forward.” — Miranda Crowell, West Coast editor
