 Your Denver League Update

November Briefing - LatinX Immigration Update

Tuesday November 15, 2022

5:30 PM - 7:00 PM

 
See the November Voter Newsletter for details on this important briefing
 
Barbara Ford, Co-chair Program

 

Bulbs have been packaged and distributed!


Thanks to all who purchased, sold, sorted, packed and distributed bulbs!  Our sale this year helped bridge our budget gap and reached many new customers who have not previously purchased from us.
 
We have a few bulbs we could sell before we donate the remaining bulbs to Denver Parks. We donate to the parks because of the Beautify Denver option on our order form and because Denver Parks makes the greenhouse available to us to package our orders. We have several dozen Tete-a-Tete daffodils available, which are small and come up early. We have a few ground cover bulbs and could sell a few dozen tulips, although limited choices.
 
Contact Marty Sloven by Monday, Nov. 7 if you are interested.
