2022 is our Chapter’s 50th Anniversary, and we are celebrating on Saturday, October 8 from 10:00am to 4:00pm at the Dana Center at Hidden Villa. This family- friendly event will feature a selection of native plants and native plant art, T-shirts, books and other related goods from our Chapter, Grassroots Ecology Nursery (www.grassrootsecology.org/nursery) and other vendors.
