Hi Everyone,
Well the date is set for the get together/summer open house, and it will be August 2nd this year. Plan your calendar for a fun day with plants and plant friends
I'll post more about it soon but wanted to get this posted for those that need to plan some time off to get here.
See you in a month!
Chris

Dang! We'll be out that way on the 26th and 27th. Was hoping I could make it as this is as close as I'll probably get. Guess I'll try to stop by the nursery anyway.

Hi all,
I'm sorry to say I won't be able to make it this year either, just couldn't make it work. Hope you all have a blast!

NOOOO! Not Lucygoose and Paul!
When will they come out with traveling robots so people can attend something like this virtually!
We'll be thinking of you both, and hopefully another time or another year will work out better

I do hope those there will take pictures and post so those of us who can not go can have the fun of looking at the photos. I'll be thinking of the gathering tomorrow.
