Upper Midwest Master Gardener Conference

June 15 - 17, 2006

My friend & fellow master gardener, Marilyn Van Wyk and I attended the regional Master Gardener conference in Cedar Rapids, IA. We had a great time. On Friday we were joined by Eve Vanden Broek & Erin Hiemstra (our group coordinator).

Thursday was non-stop garden tours, then outdoor dining at Bruce More Mansion. We returned to the motel 12 hours after our departure time. It was a very good day.

Friday was filled with gardening related presentations by various expert speakers. There were vendors too and dinner Friday evening in the motel.

Saturday morning was breakfast & more presentations, then an expert panel discussion forum for our questions. Vendors were still there!

It was a good time.
