Meeting Highlights

This month’s meeting will feature a FREE styling/design workshop featuring up to 12 of the club’s mature boxwood trees.  This is the meeting you don’t want to miss!  

After a very brief business/announcement portion, Jennifer Price will run a workshop featuring 25-plus-year-old boxwoods the club has cared for from its grow plot and, more recently, Charlotte Field’s backyard. Everyone at the meeting will have the opportunity to get right up and personal with these gems while working on the initial styling. We will break up into small groups to begin styling with oversite from our senior members, who will assist with the progress. If you have tools, we encourage you to bring them, but tools will be available to borrow as needed. (Sorry, no power tools.)

Each of the boxwoods will be available for purchase for $30. Participants purchasing a tree will draw numbers and choose the tree they will work on and keep in that sequence. The trees will be on display for inspection before the meeting starts. To ensure that you will be taking one of these beauties home, email psbspresident@gmail.com to reserve yours today.  If all are not reserved in advance, some may be available for purchase at the meeting.

 

Here is a sampling of the boxwoods available.




NOTE: Due to scheduling conflicts, the meeting date has been changed to June 8.

Meetings are held on the first Wednesday of the month from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm at The College of Dupage campus in the TEC 1038b.

The college address is 425 Fawell Boulevard, Glen Ellyn, Illinois.

This meeting will NOT be streamed due to the nature of the workshop.

Please try to attend if possible.
