Information Bites

A couple of notices for gardening folks.

In the past, the Galva (Illinois) Arts Council has sponsored several Garden Walks. It's a huge undertaking by both the gardeners and the GAC committee but truly great entertainment for those who enjoy the fruits of other people's gardening efforts.

Congratulations to the GAC! And, thank you to all the volunteers who have made the past twenty years so enjoyable for our community. Please complete the reservation form, return and help us celebrate this huge accomplishment!


The 2010 Spring Tree Sale sponsored by the Henry County (Illinois) Soil & Water Conservation District is now open.

This year the SWCD is offering:
  • Smaller container grown trees
  • Container grown hedging plants
  • Larger container grown trees
  • Container grown evergreens
  • Ground covers
  • Perennials
  • Container grown fruit trees
  • Spring bulbs
  • Soil testing kits
  • Nature field guides

Call the number listed for information, brochure and order forms. If you are not a resident of Henry County, call your local SWCD for their schedule. Henry County works with the Natural Area Guardians (NAGS) for the spring bulbs and other conservation items.
