Our hikes and lectures are free and open to the public,  and all are welcome. (but we depend on our memberships to cover our expenses.) ."You don’t have to be a plant expert to enjoy these trips and lectures. The locations are amazing and the atmosphere is casual. I’ve enjoyed every event that I’ve attended for many years!"- BB

What you missed- On Saturday Sept 2, 2023 we visited Jean’s Glade in Madison County, KY. The Gentiana alba (=flavida)  was lovely as always. Host Ann provided a wonderful lunch buffet and we could wander her gardens as well as see the cream gentians. To read more about this site, goto https://www.phytoneuron.net/.../83PhytoN-Gentianaflavida.pdf . 14 in attendance, included 6 of Ann’s friends. Photos- Cream Gentian , Lunch . Notes and photos by AC.
