In order to keep our beloved Canandaigua Botanical Society growing in 2020 we will be increasing our presence here online until we can safely meet in person again. We encourage you to check in here often and get out in nature more often. We also invite you to share images of what you're finding while you're out walking and perhaps share reviews of books or videos that you think we might appreciate. The easiest way to get things posted here would be to send it to Laura at canandaiguabotanical@gmail.com.
To get us started, this is a list of local sites and organizations of botanical interest that we publish on the back of our printed programs:
