Past Garden Club of the Back Bay speaker C.L. Fornari will be hosting a new radio program about plants and gardening on Boston station WRKO, 680 on the AM dial. The Garden Lady will be heard every Saturday afternoon from 1 to 3 PM and she’ll be taking calls during those hours at 617-266-6868.

“Regular features during this program will be Welcome To The Garden Party when we s explore what’s happening with plants and gardening right now. From the local growing conditions to the latest research, we’ll be talking about what makes the garden the place to be.

At 1:30 PM From Yard to Table focuses on an aspect of edible landscaping or vegetable gardening.

We’ll start off the top of the second hour with Have I Got a Plant for You!, my opportunity to rave about a plant that I love. Later in the program I’ll announce horticultural destinations, focus on some garden geek jargon, and take as many phone calls as we can squeeze in.

I hope you’ll make The Garden Lady a regular part of your weekend and share the information about this program with your friends, garden club members, and fellow plant lovers.”
