<Last year, W. Atlee Burpee Co. acquired Heronswood Nursery. Dan Hinkley
stayed on as manager. Now I read that Burpee has filed for Ch. 11
protection in bankruptcy. Does anyone know what this means for Heronswood?>
Bill, Dan is scheduled to be in Louisville on January 12, 2002, for a lecture
sponsored by Botanica, Inc., a local non-profit horticutural group. The
information he sent us says that he manages Heronswood. I tried to reach the
person with whom he has been in contact, but didn't find her at home. I will
try later and if I learn anything different, will let you know.
In case anyone is interested, Dan's topic is "The Garden in Winter: Blossom,
Foliage, Fruit and Bark". Tickets are $7.00 and will be sold only at the
door...no advance sales. If anyone is interested in more information, please
email me privately.
