Gardening for a Lifetime

Gardens should never be a burden to us. What we wanted once may have changed or no longer be practical. Our speaker Betty Sanders will show us how to keep our gardens as our needs and abilities change. It’s a matter of plant selection and design, and can pay dividends for decades.

Betty Sanders has a lifetime of gardening experience as well as classes in horticulture and landscaping from the New York Botanical Garden and the Arnold Arboretum, among other institutions. Betty previously designed and maintained a two-acre garden which was selected for the Garden Conservancy Open Days program.  She has now created a 95%+ native garden at her new home.
