There are many garden clubs and special interest groups in Massachusetts, and occasionally we like to highlight organizations of potential interest to our members and followers. The Emerald Necklace African Violet Club is our “pick of the day.” This small, devoted group welcomes new members. Meetings are held on the second Monday of each month at 7 pm, and are relaxed events, with program topics planned in advance. Meeting in member’s homes, they view others’ plants and culture techniques. Several members are judges, so questions are easily answered. For information on joining, write to Marie Montague, 5 Windsor Terrace, Waltham, MA 02453-6701, or email her at mgmontague@earthlink.net.
