MAC welcomes gardener Linda<br />
Beutler to the club Thursday, March 12.<br />
Attendees enjoy a luncheon presentation<br />
from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. as they learn<br />
what to plant to make their garden a cut<br />
above.<br />
Beutler is a fearless gardener whose<br />
first love was in her own garden growing<br />
flowers and foliage for cutting. Her<br />
background includes being a florist for<br />
more than 20 years, as well as an<br />
instructor of a horticulture class for 12<br />
years. She lectures nationally on<br />
numerous gardening topics.<br />
Beutler’s book, Garden to Vase, explains<br />
how to grow and use cut flowers, and is<br />
written with gardeners, not florists, in<br />
mind. She is a garden writer for both<br />
local and national publications, including<br />
Fine Gardening, Pacific Horticulture, and<br />
Birdwatcher’s Digest.<br />
This event includes lunch and dessert.<br />
Those with special dietary restrictions or<br />
seating requests should submit their<br />
requests when making their reservation.<br />
and group support can halt, reverse and<br />
prevent America’s top health threat<br />
without invasive treatment or surgery.<br />
Participants in lifestyle modification<br />
programs that include nutrition, exercise,<br />
stress management and group support<br />
have significant reversal in heart disease<br />
after one year.<br />
