Program on Plant Rescues Rescheduled to July 8
The West Georgia Chapter’s June program on plant rescues suffered a last-minute cancellation when the Agricultural Center had to be evacuated following a lightning strike. We’ve rescheduled this program to Tuesday, July 8, with reception at 6:30 and presentation at 7:00, followed by a drawing for door prizes.
As a special incentive to entice your attendance during the hot weather, we are pleased to offer a “make your own sundae” bar with ice cream and your choice of toppings!
If you have never been on a GNPS plant rescue, or if it’s been a while since your last one, you will not want to miss this session. We’ll explain how to register for a rescue, the rules that participants must follow, how to prepare for the rescue, what to take with you, and how to get your plants home safely. We’ll also help you avoid common newbie mistakes that can spoil the experience.
