DIXON, CA (MPG) - On June 27, the Dixon Women’s Improvement Club (DWIC) enjoyed a delightful summer outing to the beautiful High Hand Nursery in Loomis. Club members and guests carpooled together for a day filled with laughter, lunch and lush landscapes.

On arrival, the group explored the nursery’s extensive gardens and gift shops. Members brought home unique plant materials and gifts. One highlight of the day was the interactive succulent bar, where attendees designed and purchased planters filled with drought-tolerant Cactaceae beauties.

Lunch at the onsite café was a hit, featuring fresh, flavorful dishes including shrimp salad, fish tacos and wood-fired pizza. The charming setting and delicious food provided the perfect backdrop for connection and conversation.

Dixon Women’s Improvement Club member Cheryl Hughes found the nursery amazing.

“The nursery was amazing, so large and so many [plant] varieties,” said Hughes.

Club members and guests returned to Dixon, filled with great memories and new additions for their gardens.
