THE THREE RIVERS Post Office is a hub of the community, where many residents have boxes and visit daily. The native plant garden, originally planted in 1996, was extensively reconfigured and redesigned in 2007, at which time a formal dedication was held in memory of long-time Redbud Garden Club member Jean Darsey.
THIS HAS been the largest and most widely funded project of the club and perhaps its most perplexing garden. While lovely in the spring with rain providing irrigation, the club has been challenged with high salinity content in the well water used during the hot summer months. However, this has provided an opportunity to educate property owners about salt-tolerant plant choices in case they are facing similar challenges in their own yards.
