How to make up the last elements of the gardener's badge

[Elizabeth Timberlake-Newell]

Hi everyone,

It was truly a lovely trip to the arboretum on Tuesday--our Girl Scout troop trip turned into a mother-daughter trip to find what was green and blooming, and then we went to the creamery for ice cream. 

If your daughter has completed the first day of the gardener badge (Tuesday the 2nd's meeting), to complete the badge, take her to a planned garden. Look at the design of the garden, and what sorts of plants the gardener chose. The aboretum is a great choice for this, but not the only one.

Yours in scouting,

Elizabeth
