The Love of Gardening and Plant America
Our General Meetings are open to the public as well as our members and their guests. We will be returning to the Naperville Municipal Center for our General Meetings beginning September 2022 through May 2023.
Our September speaker is Kim Hartman speaking on "Adding fall color to your garden and containers."
In October, we will be meeting at Grace United Methodist Church on Gartner Road in Naperville due to early voting at the Municipal Center.
We are happy to say that the cost of each meeting (with the exception of the December and May Luncheons) will remain the same: $15 for members and $20 for guests. There will NOT be a January meeting due to low attendance in the past and the uncertainty of the weather. In August, you will receive a reminder and in September the Newsletter. You can make your reservations then. We look forward to seeing you in September.
Save the Date!
Illinois State Climatologist Trent Ford, Prairie Research Institute’s 2022 Early Career Investigator Award recipient, will be our program speaker February 22, 2023
