The May meeting of the DeSoto Civic Garden Club was held at the Memphis Botanic Garden in Memphis. 

Allison Ashmore, District Director of Hills and Delta and a member of the Charleston Magnolia Club presented a program on Herbs. Allison used Herbs to identify each officer as she installed them to their 2023-2024 term. 

The program continued when Botanic Garden staff member Mary HePen Bi gave a guided tour of the many beautiful areas of the garden.  Club members were given Dahlia Tubers to plant for beautification of our community.
