Mountain Laurel Chapter 20th Anniversary Celebration with The Extraordinary Caterpillar
Public Welcome Registration Required Free Event Chapter Social Program/Speaker Presentation Wheelchair Accessible Public Restroom Free Public Parking
The Mountain Laurel was the first Wild Ones chapter in New England, chartered in May 2006. Join us to celebrate our 20th anniversary and reflect upon how Wild Ones and the ecological gardening movement have evolved over the past two decades. We hope that many of the founding members will attend and share their memories and stories of the early days of Wild Ones in Connecticut. In addition to socializing and light refreshments, we’ll enjoy viewing “The Extraordinary Caterpillar,” a new documentary film about these amazing creatures, their vital role in nature and what is needed to ensure their survival.
At the “READ MORE” link, you can find an article by chapter co-founder Kathy Dame, discussing the connections between the late Professor William Niering's S.A.L.T. (Smaller American Lawns Today) initiative and the founding of the Mountain Laurel Chapter.
The public is invited to this free event. Please RSVP if you plan to attend.
