10 AM on Saturday, March 25, 2017
at Sonnenberg Gardens, Canandaigua
We will meet at the Admissions Gate inside Sonnenberg
Gardens, 151 Charlotte Street at 10:00 AM.
Barb Stahl will take us on a unique tour of Sonnenberg
focusing on Frederick Ferris Thompson and his diaries which tell of his fervent
interest in nature. We hope that this
event will seed future research into the connections between Frederick’s later
years and the earliest years of the Canandaigua Botanical Society. Perhaps you will be interested in ongoing
studies of past histories to build a supportive relationship between Sonnenberg
and The Canandaigua Botanical Society into the future. Feel free to bring
walking sticks and portable stools for navigating through the greenhouses and
Sonnenberg property.
Canandaigua Botanical Events are free and open to the
public. Membership offers you a printed
program of events, membership roster, and useful information toward our goal of
advancing the knowledge and enjoyment of all plants growing in the Finger Lakes
Region and beyond.
