Geraldine Homemakers and Community Leaders

Meets At 1:00 p.m. on the Fourth Tuesday of each month at the
Homemaker's Building on Old Mill Road in Geraldine, Alabama.

    
    In this year of 2011-2012 the Geraldine Club is celebrating 90 years of being a club.  Ninety years ago women came together to preserve the tomatoes so that their families could enjoy them for a longer time - canning was the answer.  They were first known as the "Tomato Club". 
 Today we still come together to empower each other through
education, joining together to make a difference in home and community.
