Julie Adamik
PRESIDENT
Our president, Julie, has been a member of the Carlsbad Garden Club since 2015. Upon retirement
she decided she would like to grow flowers like her mom and grandmother. After several failed
attempts she decided that she needed help. That’s when she joined the CGC. Admitting she was a
total beginner, she asked for help. When questioned about what she was “feeding” her flowers, her
response was, “Huh? What do you mean feed them?” Today she’s the proud parent of over 50
gorgeous rose bushes. Mom would be proud!
In a former life, Julie spent 45 years in Human Resources after obtaining a BSBA from San Diego
State University. Originally from Cleveland, Ohio she lives in Carlsbad with her husband, John, and
their four-legged, fury son Riley Doogles.
