Dragon Tree Nursery, Field Trip, Sat, June 17, 2023
We are so excited to announce that for our June meeting, we will be taking a field trip. We will be caravanning it over to Dragon Tree Nursery on the east coast. We will meet at the Garden Center at 8:30 AM and leave for the trip at 9:00 AM. If you don’t want to drive, you can hitch a ride with someone else, just be sure to chip in on the gas. It will be a full day trip. It takes about 2½ hours to drive over, about 2 hours at the nursery, lunch somewhere and about 2½ hours to drive back. So, you see it will be a full day. It’s not too late to go…Call Martha Goff at 239-332-3850 and tell her that you want to be included.
