January 14, 2018 - Center Garden Club’s “natural wonder” for January 2018, is one among several gigantic and aged red cedar trees that stands in Center’s Fairview Cemetery.
The featured greenish-brown pyramidal cedar stands oh so tall...perhaps more than sixty feet tall. It is a beauty -- generously providing cover for wildlife; rich aromatic greenery for holiday decoration; rot-resistant wood; as well as a stunning silhouette against the sky.
The branches are supported by a beautiful shaggy trunk with unique definition only nature creates. Our Fairview Cemetery red cedar has over many decades, perhaps more than ten, been quite tolerant, able to adapt to a variety of conditions, such as drought, searing sun, poor soil, and a lack of attention.
Our Fairview Cemetery red cedar is “one wonder” in Shelby County that has endured, will endure, and does, indeed, deserve our attention and admiration.
Center Garden Club meets on the second Wednesday of each month, September through May. The public is welcomed.

January 14, 2018 - Center Garden Club enjoyed a fascinating and informative conservation program presented by club member Mrs. Juanita Robinson of Hemphill on January 10.
Mrs. Robinson, a mosaic artist, discussed and exhibited numerous items and materials that she had collected and repurposed, such as glass tableware, discarded light fixtures, broken glass pieces, plastic containers, oatmeal cylinders, soft drink cans, and others.
She inspired members to save our environment by thinking about repurposing before discarding.
