Fall and Winter Interest in the Garden

On Tuesday, November 1, we are very pleased to be hosting Roger Gossler, who will be speaking about "Fall and Winter Interest in the Garden."

Roger is the buyer and main grower for Gossler Farms Nursery in  Springfield. He has been growing and selling shrubs for more than forty years. Roger spends a great deal of time researching what is new in the trade and worthy of inclusion in their catalog and is the leading contributor to the book The Gossler Guide to the Best Hardy Shrubs.

Interested in plants from an early age, Roger quickly became a leader in promoting the use of woody trees and shrubs. Gossler Farms Nursery serves as a demonstration garden where ninety percent of the plants described in The Gossler Guide have been grown.

Roger will give a slide presentation and have books and plants for sell.

Don't miss this great opportunity! The meeting starts at 6pm and Roger's presentation starts at 7pm. There will be light refreshments and all guests and visitors are welcome.

We meet at the First Presbyterian Church, 3rd and Adams, in Cottage Grove.
