The Garden Club of Marlton invites public to November monthly meeting

The Garden Club of Marlton will hold its next monthly meeting on Thursday, Nov. 14, and residents of Evesham Township and surrounding communities are invited to attend. 

The program for the November meeting will explore “New Jersey’s Agricultural Heritage” and will be presented by Al Murray, who has spent his entire career advocating on behalf of New Jersey’s agricultural industry.

Farm Bureau, and on the board of directors of the Easter Produce Council, Mr. Murray will discuss the importance of New Jersey’s agricultural industry throughout our state’s history and will also focus on the N.J. Agricultural Society and its 237-year legacy in supporting this important industry.
