Emerald Necklace Garden Club

At the Oct. 10 meeting of the Emerald Necklace Garden Club, Cherise Kent, Cleveland Botanical Garden Green Corps Coordinator, will discuss the program this organization has offered to high schoolers for 26 years.

The Green Corps program introduces youth to career paths in green industries through hands-on, paid internships. It generates interest in the benefit of trees and plants, enabling participants to employ environmentally friendly practices in their communities and future careers.

ENGC meets the second Thursday of every month, except July and August, at 9:15 a.m., at Christ the Redeemer Lutheran Church, 9201 Brecksville Rd. Guests are always welcome to attend meetings. ∞
