The Annual Meeting will be May 15-17 this year in Williamsburg.
The exhibit needs to be in place the morning of May 16th.
Theme - Did you know that half of all storm water pollution
comes from residential property?
Assignment - Create a mini rain garden in a glass container so that soil
layers are visible. Then choose a suitable native plant from your area of
the state that would function well in a rain garden and plant it. Label
your soil and plant choice on a simple index card. Please confine your
display to within a space of 15”x15”, with no height restriction.
