SUMMARY:FREE Native Tree & Shrub Giveaway - Sunday\, March 29
DESCRIPTION:The Mill Creek Towne Garden Club is pleased to offer our community FREE native trees and shrubs!!!! \nSunday\, March 29th \n3:30 pm-5:30 pm \n7617 Warbler Ln\, Derwood\, MD 20855 \nFirst come first serve\, limit 4 plants per household. The trees and shrubs come bareroot – they need to be planted as soon as possible\, and you will need to provide deer protection unless they are inside a fenced area that the deer do not frequent. Please use some damp newspaper to wrap the roots up until they are ready for planting. \nDeer management and Tree cages: Watch for the presence of deer. Use repellents during installations and cage ALL trees and shrubs to prevent deer browsing and rubbing. Cage immediately upon planting to avoid catastrophe!  For guidance on caging see this handy guide:  https://mywoodlot.com/images/supporting_information/installing_tree_cages.pdf \nDeer fencing material: Tenax brand deer fencing is recommended. This material is UV stable and sturdier than the usual flimsy mesh typically available at Home Depot and Lowes. The flimsy stuff will tear more easily and is know to ensnare and kill both birds and snakes.  To avoid the bird and snake problem and for a sturdy product\, be sure to purchase Tenax with 1-¾” by 2” mesh size. Zip ties work well to secure the Tenax to a stake and to itself. \nFor more detailed guidance on planting and caring for bare root trees and shrubs visit: https://dnr.maryland.gov/forests/Documents/Planting-Guide-Brochure.pdf \nThese plants are free to the public\, but we do welcome donations to the Club to help us continue to beautify our neighborhood and provide quality programming.

The seed is consumed by small birds and ducks.  Buttonbush must be planted at the water’s edge.  Prefers full sun to partial shade.

SUMMARY:01/30/2016 - Nature Architects
DESCRIPTION:Erect a tower\, build a boat\, make a mud pie…it’s time to let your inner architect out! We’ll venture into different park habitats to design and construct things using natural objects and materials. What we do will depend on the weather and the things we can find. But no matter what we do\, come dressed for the weather and ready to get dirty.  \nAges 3 to 12
