🌸 Award-Winning Iris Garden & Lakeside Potluck
Details
Join us for a breathtaking afternoon of blooms and beauty!
One of our very own members is a champion iris grower, and she has graciously opened her stunning lakeside home and award-winning garden for an exclusive meetup.
Nestled on the scenic shores of Drew Lake (just 30 minutes outside Santa Cruz), this is the perfect setting to relax, snap some photos, and enjoy the company of friends among world-class flowers.
