The Dr. T. E. Rhine book is now out of print - but some copies exist in bookstores. 

The picture above is Dr. Rhine about 1960. 

The park in 2008 after 8 inches of snow.  The pavilion is in fair condition.

  

The park now has a number of azaleas centered around the base of 8 or 9 trees.  Crepe Myrtles, daffodils, surprise lilies and other items wait their time.

SOUTH CENTRAL ARKANSAS MASTER GARDENERS

The OUACHITA COUNTY MASTER GARDENERS meet at St. Marks United Methodist Church at 1315 West Washington Street at 6:30 PM on the third Tuesday. 

Meetings can vary in time or place - contact Thera Lou Adams  - 870-836-5221 or Extension agent Jerri Lephiew --- jlephiew@uaex.edu --- at the Ouachita County Agriculture Extension Office at 870-231-1160. 

  

New:  The Ouachita County - and a few Calhoun County Master Gardeners - agreed to add a project.  The Dr. T. E. Rhine Park was purchased by friends, relatives and neighbors in the area and donated to be a Calhoun County Park.  Brush and fallen timber has already been removed along with the remains of the kitchen area.  Fencing and lighting will be added next.  After the fencing, several thousand daffodils will be planted along the fence.

  

Several MGs are working landscape items at the Bearden HS.

A large group of MGs started the County Jail landscaping last week in Camden with the sheriff bringing top soil with a bucket loader.
