Re: [SG] Nat'l Home Gardening Club

Hello Bobbi,
        I tried the club for a year. I joined mainly to do product reviews they
advertised. Sent them my application and information letting them know I
was a garden writer. Never heard a word from them. Also they shipped books
to me I did not request and they had to be returned. I do not like people
sending me things I have to return and do not ask for. Since I have seen
some of your plants and know a bit about your gardening I would think you
would be disappointed in the content. I found it to have a bit of flash and
not much substance. They do keep on sending bills for your renewal that
look as though you re-upped for another year and can't remember signing the
card for some time to come.
        personally, I did not think much of the club. just my humble opinion.
