Final description to come 
Wild Ones Greater Richmond Virginia Chapter will be tabling at this annual event hosted by the Henrico Master Gardener Association.  Admission is free.

Each year during this event, Master Gardeners sell plants from their gardens at discounted prices (including native plants), along with floral arrangements and gently used gardening items at the Garden Treasures table. The event also includes educational displays  and presentations from a range of sources, including master gardeners, master naturalists, and other informational exhibitors. Musical entertainment and a food truck (delicious stuff in 2024!) also are available. 

Chapter members are encouraged to attend this festival and, if you enjoy "talking native plants," to sign up for a shift at our exhibit table.  An email with signup links for upcoming volunteer opportunities will be sent to chapter members soon.  

A more detailed description of this event will be added when released by the event organizers. 

For individuals and companies seeking knowledgeable professionals who understand your priorities and have a knowledgeable background for working with native plants, professionals who have CBLP certification are an excellent place to start. Moreover, as more landscaping crews undergo CBLP training, it is becoming easier to find knowledgeable crews that understand how to properly install and maintain native plant landscapes. 

Join us for a presentation by Beth Ginter and a colleague with the Chesapeake Conservation Landscaping Council, who will talk about the work of the CCLC and the Chesapeake Bay Landscape Professional Program, which educates landscape professionals from designers to crews about best management practices that protect the Chesapeake Bay watershed and the Bay itself, including by working with native plants. 

There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.

Please register for this online program though Ticketleap--the Zoom link will be sent to registrants by email a few days before the event. 
 

We look forward to seeing  you online!
