Hi everyone! We were bummed to not be able to send a representative of Gardening Matters to the recent ACGA conference in NYC. I hope all that went had an awesome time and are settling back in at home with their knew-found knowledge.
I know TONS of information was gleaned, preserved, and grown..and I was hoping that someone might be willing to share a short recap of their experience at the conference for our monthly e-newsletter. This would have the multi-advantage of promoting the ACGA listserv and conference, and promoting dialogue and sharing between gardeners not just within MN (as our organization aims to do), but across the country! A general reflection about why you went, what you gained, what you learned, topics covered, what the benefit of such a gathering is, etc.. would all be appropriate topics. Please reply directly to me at marga...@gardeningmatters.org if you'd be willing to share your experiences with our readership! Pictures would be a welcome and added bonus! We would need the article by next Wednesday August 31st. Thanks in advance!
