Discussions are led by horticulturist and book-lover Elizabeth Haegele and participants are welcome to share or simply listen. \nRegister Now\nRegistration is free\, but required to receive the Zoom meeting link.\n\nProgram Details \n\nRegistration is free\, but required to receive the Zoom meeting link.\nThe meeting link will be included in the confirmation email received after registering online.\nParticipants must download Zoom.\nEmail us if you have accessibility needs for this program.\nFor more information\, review our program and event policies or call the Scott office at 610-328-8025.
