- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 25 Mar, 2026 at 11:00 am – Wed, 25 Mar, 2026 at 12:30 pm
- **Event Description**: KIRK R. BROWN, garden historian, designer and consultant, will entertain with an insightful dose of botanical history at TCGC's Free Lecture. While assuming the persona of JOHN BARTRAM, our guest speaker will introduce the “Father of American Botany,” North America’s first and foremost horticulturist and plant collector.
An associate of Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and Carl Linnaeus, Bartram (1699-1777) is credited with introducing more than 200 American native plants to the international trade, most via seed exchange. He wrote the American Appendix to the British Pharmacopeia that remained in use until 1950.
Bartram’s humor, passion and achievements – portrayed by our speaker – should inspire us with hope for the future of the earth and its inhabitants.
Brown has won several garden design and achievement awards. He is past president of GardenComm (Garden Communicators International) and former national outreach coordinator for Magnolia Plantation and Gardens, America’s oldest garden in Charleston, SC. He has served as judge for America in Bloom and lecturer for National Garden Club’s Design, Environmental Studies and Garden Schools. On his national lecture tours, he covers other garden titans, including Frederick Law Olmstead and Henry Muhlenberg.
