and a Member Potluck

Plant Sale and Seed Exchange Celebration Potluck
Siskiyou Rare Plant Nursery
Talent, 5:00 p.m.

What to bring: Plants to donate and an entree, salad, side dish or dessert to share
We did it and now it's time to celebrate! Over 200 orders processed and sent off to eager rock gardeners in Europe and North America. 
A plant sale and potluck will take the place of our regular chapter meeting. Instead of Lidgate Hall, we'll gather in the lovely setting of Siskiyou Rare Plant Nursery. Sale will be open to the public after a private potluck and sale "early shop" by chapter members. Please note the earlier starting time.

PLEASE PAY YOUR DUES BY OUR MAY MEETING -- MAKE MARGARET'S JOB A LITTLE EASIER.

SEED EXCHANGE
The NARGS seed exchange order assembly has been quite a learning experience for our chapter -- all good! Many, many thanks to Jean Buck and Leigh Blake for organizing our efforts, Margaret Meierhenry for monitoring orders and to Baldassare for cheerfully hosting and turning his office over to SNARGS SEED CENTRAL.

Members of the
North American Rock Garden Society (NARGS) include gardeners from all over the world. We grow all types of plants in our gardens and often try collect the most unusual plants in the world. Though we may grow greenhouse plants, unusual hardy perennials, trees and shrubs, our main focus is plants and wildflowers of the world's alpine zones. Join the Siskiyou Chapter and learn about these plants at our monthly presentations, garden tours, and workshops. We have a very large library of books members can borrow from and we have three major events annually where you can purchase many rare and hard-to-find plants.
