the first MGS meeting in California!!

Just a reminder - to those of you who might have escaped my previous
post about this event, I include it again below.  So far, we have
about 17 people attending, and many more interested in being kept
informed about future developments with a possible MGS chapter in
Northern California.  There will likely be a Southern California
group as well.  If you wish more information about either, feel free
to contact me.

The Pacific Horticulture's (& Strybing's) 'Gardening Under Mediterranean
Skies' Symposium this weekend looks to be a significant event also.
Perhaps we'll be seeing some of you there as well!  Strange as it may
seem, the S.F. Bay Region has still not adopted the 'Mediterranean'
approach to horticulture in any significant way - its nice to see
such interest in coming together more and learning from each other,
as we do here on Medit-Plants.

Fellow Medit-Planters - 

At the end of September, the current Mediterranean Garden Society
president, Heidi Gildemeister, will be visiting the Bay Area as a speaker
at the 'Gardening Under Mediterranean Skies' symposium, hosted by Pacific
Horticulture and Strybing Arboretum (see more information about this event
below).

While she is here, she has requested the opportunity to meet and address
the local MGS membership.  To accommodate her during her short visit, a
meeting has been scheduled to take place in Berkeley on Monday morning,
September 28th, from 10am-noon.  This is the first meeting of MGS
membership in California (there is also a Southern California meeting
scheduled for October 10th, after she speaks at the L.A. Garden Show).  The
meeting is free to all, interested parties are welcome to attend.  There
will be light refreshments, Heidi will address the group, we will have all
of the MGS Journals on hand to view, and a demonstration of the new MGS Web
Site is planned.

To RSVP or for more information, contact Katherine Greenberg (925-283-4322)
or myself (510-987-0577) before Sept. 21st - we need to know the number of
people attending as the meeting room has limited accommodation.

This is an exciting opportunity to get to know more about the MGS and meet
the local membership.  There will be the opportunity to sign up for
membership during the meeting.
