Rockport hosts garden consultant

By Jonathan L'Ecuyer Staff Writer The Gloucester Daily Times Tue Sep 07, 2010, 10:31 PM EDT

ROCKPORT — Summer may be nearing an end, but the upcoming change in season doesn't have to put an end to gardening.

An opportunity for those interested in learning how to create and tend an off-season garden is available through a special meeting of the Rockport Garden Club tonight at 7 at the Rockport Art Association on Main Street.

The meeting is free to the public and will feature a presentation on "Designing the Off-Season Garden" by Fred Rice, a garden design consultant and horticultural speaker.

Rice is a native and longtime resident of Manchester, who now lives in Rome, N.Y.

Jonathan L'Ecuyer can be reached at 978-283-7000 x3451 or jlecuyer@gloucestertimes.com.
