SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting: Behind the Scenes of the Horticulture Industry
DESCRIPTION:Our September speaker will be Diane Blazek\, Executive Director of All-America Selections and National Garden Bureau. Diane has been deeply (and happily!) immersed in gardening from an early age. From growing up on a small family farm to her small suburban lot\, she is passionate about everything green. After spending 15 years with Ball Publishing\, Diane moved to take on her current role where she can be even closer to the end consumer. Both organizations are in an exciting period of growth and influence both inside and outside the industry. Innovative ideas and progressive programs for consumers\, garden communicators\, public gardens\, and a full range of growers and retailers have benefited home gardeners\, master gardeners and hobby farmers. \nDiane Blazek’s presentation is titled: Behind the Scenes of the Horticulture Industry: How Plants get From Here to There and Other Cool Facts about the Industry. Are you an inquisitive type? Do you like knowing “How was that made?” Or do you look at your garden and wonder how that plant came to be? Diane Blazek has been involved in the horticulture industry since 1993 and is ready to share some behind the scenes facts and figures about how plants get from the breeding fields and greenhouses to your garden. Along the way\, a few fun facts are thrown in for an even more interesting evening. \nMeeting Location: St Andrew Lutheran Church (NE Corner of Prince Crossing & Geneva Road.) \nMeeting Time: \n    6:45PM Arrive & Mingle\n    7:00PM Business Meeting\n    7:15PM Program
