SUMMARY:Why You Need to Add Water to Your Garden
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, March 24\, 2026 \n7pm \nMill Creek Parish United Methodist\n7101 Horizon Terrace\nDerwood\, MD 20855 \nJoin us for a special presentation on an “Why You Need to Add Water to Your Garden”\, by guest speaker\, Mike Coan\, Oasis Water Gardens\, on Tuesday\, March 24\, 2026 at 7pm. \n\nFREE\nLight Refreshments provided\n\nMost of us spend a lot of time thinking about plants\, color\, and structure in our gardens — but water is often the piece that’s missing. \nIn this talk\, we take a practical look at what water actually brings to a garden. Not just how it looks\, but how it changes the way a space feels and how people use it every day. \nWe’ll talk about why ponds and waterfalls naturally become focal points\, how they create movement and sound\, and why so many people find themselves drawn to sit near water without even realizing it. \nWe’ll also spend time on the ecological side of things. Even small water features can make a big difference for birds\, pollinators\, frogs\, and other local wildlife. Adding water often turns a garden into a living\, active ecosystem rather than something that’s just nice to look at. \nWe’ll wrap up by walking through the core principles behind building a water feature\, starting with small\, simple waterfalls and then showing how those same ideas carry through to larger ponds and more complex designs. The goal is to help people understand how water features work at a fundamental level and to demystify some of the questions we hear all the time. \nRSVP: info@mctgardenclub.org \nPlease do NOT attend this event if you are or have been experiencing symptoms of illness. \nTHIS EVENT IS FREE\, BUT DONATIONS ARE ALWAYS APPRECIATED! \nDonations pay for landscaping\, repair and maintenance of the Mill Creek Towne Entrances\, and our garden-related programs at our community meetings. \nNOTE: If Montgomery County Schools are closed due to inclement weather\, the Garden Club meeting will be cancelled. \n
