April CHS Meeting: Garden Seduction

PLEASE NOTE: THIS MEETING IS SCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY APRIL 29 due to election on the Monday.
Join us for a wonderful presentation by Ken Brown on 'Garden Seduction'. Ken has always been fascinated by green things that grow and this fascination led him to choose horticulture as his university field of study and down a long and interesting garden path that became his life.

Join us as Ken allows his passion for all things horticultural to flow out to his audience. His presentation “Garden Seduction” will include anecdotes, facts, a wealth of experience and a generous sprinkling of humour. Ken entices even the blackest of thumbs to want to go out into the garden and partake of all of its benefits and pleasures. Participation in things horticultural can have positive benefits in so many aspects of our lives and Ken enthusiastically identifies and demonstrates how we can all improve those lives by spending some time Dallying in the Dirt.

CHS is excited to announce that author and scientist Richard Dickinson will be offering an “Intro to BioBlitz” session just before Ken’s main presentation. This is a great opportunity to learn about BioBlitz and how we can organize and hold one in our own community. Please consider arriving by 7pm to attend this informative session.

April Flower Show – first of the season! Calling all members to bring in their garden treasurers. Entries to be in place by 7pm for judging. Check out the CHS 2025 Yearbook for all the classes and get ready for a bright and beautiful show season.
