Winter Lecture Series
During the winter months, Blooms By The Bay Garden Club of Anchor Bay hosts a lecture series held on the last Tuesday of each month.
Past lectures have included topics such as Composting, Tree and Shrub Care, Lawn Care, Pest Management, Vegetable Gardens etc. Speakers generally will give a short presentation and then open the floor to questions. All lectures are free of charge and begin at 6:00 pm. Our Winter Lecture Series has been temporarily suspended. We look forward to bring back this educational offering in the future.

Christmas Tree Saplings
For the past three years, Blooms By The Bay Garden Club of Anchor Bay has distributed White Pine saplings to the first 100 kids that come to the Recreation Center following the City of New Baltimore's Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony in December. During the 2013 ceremony we were happy to hand out 150 tree saplings. It's always possible that some day, the tree we give to a kid to plant may one day be the town's Christmas Tree that stands in the middle of the intersection during the Christmas holiday. For 2014 we plan on being part of the festivities again and continue to distribute the State Tree of Michigan, The White Pine.
Future Event Planning
At some point, Blooms By The Bay Garden Club would be interested in developing an Annual Garden Walk. We continue to visit the idea at our membership meetings and are working on what we would want to be a unique experience for a garden walk in the Anchor Bay area.
