    Here’s Another Way That You Could Help

    Our Society is responsible for the upkeep of the roses at Mounts Botanical Garden (https://www.mounts.org/) in West Palm Beach. We would appreciate your helping us with this project. Fred Frappier heads up this effort. He often can be found in the garden in the mornings and almost always on the first Saturday of each month.

    Call Fred at (561) 951-8232, or email him at fjfrappi@gmail.com, and offer to help him in the Mounts Botanical garden.
