March General Meeting - 2017

Conservation

Our March program was set up by our Conservation Chair, Julie Grady and consisted of our guest speaker, NatureScape Broward Outreach’s, Rose Bechard Butman.

Rose spoke on many topics that effect our gardens and landscapes; different kinds of environments for plants and trees and also about migratory birds (very interesting).

Ms. Butman’s presentation was full of slide pictures and useful information for us all. The presentation was intriguing and I’m sure the members can use a lot of what Rose delivered in her presentation.

Rose also provided handouts to help guide us when making decisions of what kinds of plants and trees we use for our gardens, yards and landscapes.
All in all, Rose’s presentation was well delivered and very interesting. The member fellowship, along with lunch from the Plantation Diner topped off an enjoyable time at our meeting.
