The sepia-colored photograph shows the fourth annual Atherton-Woodside Garden Club exhibit at Old Tripp Store, now Woodside Store, in the summer of 1931. The store was formerly a general store, post office and dental office in the heyday of lumber industry in Woodside, according to the county website.
Today, the store is a museum and popular field trip site, restored to look as it did in the 1880s. It is filled with items that a teamster, wagon maker, lumberman or blacksmith might use, according to the county.
The garden club, founded in 1929, is aimed at encouraging and sharing knowledge about horticulture, conservation, floral design, photography and civic responsibility, according to the charitable nonprofit’s website.
The club’s annual plant sale took place at the Woodside Library on May 11 and featured members’ homegrown natives, pollinators, vegetables, perennials, succulents, trees and shrubs, floral arrangements and special gardening items.
