Plant and landscape enthusiasts come from a wide range of backgrounds and variety of expertise. A land developer, a conservationist, and a gardener have a mutual goal: to steward healthy, beautiful landscapes for public enjoyment. Join American Horticultural Society board chair, land developer and preservationist, and native plant nursery founder Scott Plein for a conversation about the history and role of land development in landscape stewardship. We will discover some beloved plants along the way! The online talk will take place October 12 at 1 pm Eastern time, and is $10 for AHS members, $15 for nonmembers. Register at www.ahsgardening.org
