Brenda was the maker of the prize winning chili and was rewarded with a chili pepper sunvisor. The Garden Club mulched the new garden near the entrance to Trophy Gardens. Hoping the plants make it through the hot dry summer - there are severe drought conditions in the RGV. I had a trip out to South Padre Island with the Bi
