Carson City's Desert Gardeners announce winner of quilt raffle
CARSON CITY — The Desert Gardeners announced the winner of a beautiful garden-themed quilt raffled during a fundraiser to benefit The Greenhouse Project during its May meeting on Thursday, May 16.
The winning ticket was bought by Sable Shaw of Carson City. More than 120 tickets were sold at the Earth Day Celebration, The Mothers’ Day Plant Sale at the Greenhouse Project and by members of The Desert Gardeners. The quilt was made by Ann Carpenter.
Proceeds from the quilt raffle ticket sale, along with money earned from the sale of herb seedlings and herb salad dressing recipes, will be donated to The Greenhouse Project.
The Desert Gardeners Garden Club was formed in 1952 to help beautify the Carson City community, to study plant life, to promote better gardens and to share a common interest in the flora of our area.
Current projects of the Club include: Donation of a garden bench for the Carson Tahoe Cancer Center, annual sponsorship of two hanging baskets for downtown Carson City, bulbs and plants for the Children’s Secret Garden at the library and donation of trees, to honor past members, at several Carson City parks.
