    Posted at 10:00 am by Debra Smith

    One of the great garden clubs of the area, the Arlington Garden Club, is offering a series of Turn Your Thumb Green workshops starting this fall. All are open to the public.

    The workshops are free to club members and $3 each for everybody else. They’re held 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., the second Saturday of the month at the Arlington Boys and Girls Club, 18513 59th Ave. NE, Arlington.

    Here’s the schedule:    Sept. 13: Hypertufa, instructor Sheryl Verral will teach how to make garden objects using Hypertufa methods.

    Oct. 11: Patrick Carey of Hadj Designs will speak on green roofs. Carey trains builders, landscape architects as well other building professionals on the subject of green roofs.

    Nov. 8: Bill Blake, from the City of Arlington, will discuss why the city has a storm water tax, plus what homeowners can do for storm water runoff.

    Dec. 13: Arlington Garden Club members will teach members and residents how to make their own holiday wreaths.

    Jan. 10: Michelle Clark, Certified Horticulturist, a popular speaker in Pacific Northwest gardening circles, plans to lecture on winter gardening and getting a jump on spring.
