With spring in the air, local organizations and clubs have numerous events in the pipeline to get people motivated to make the most of the season, and the Sedona Area Garden Club is doing its part by hosting the Arizona Federated Garden Club Convention which opens Monday, April 1, at Poco Diablo Resort in Sedona.
The 79th annual convention brings together garden clubs from all over the state and features panel discussions and seminars on a wide range of topics, from floral design to container gardening to birding.
Among the speakers and guests are National Garden Club President Shirley Nicolai and Arizona Federation of Garden Clubs President Carol Parrott, as well as experts in various fields, like architect and botanist Max Licher, and Ruth Loomis, an expert on African violets, among others.
