Our next meeting is Thursday, July 28, 2022.
As John Muir said,
”Everyone needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.” |

If you have too much algae, try NOT feeding your fish. If you have a reasonable ecological balance with plants in your pond, you probably do not need to feed your fish at all. |
We share good times, flora, fauna, wisdom and tales. You can usually stock a new pond with plants that members have had to thin out. Fish and other aquatic animals are often available for sharing, too. Mostly, we help each other with pond challenges, from algae to broken pumps. And know that everyone has a different theory on filtration!
But it is not necessary to have a pond to join. Some members have a simple fountain. Others just have an interest in the concept of a water garden.
