Our 2024 ARS-GLC Spring Meeting will be held at the Leach Research Station in North Madison, Ohio in conjunction with their open house on Saturday, May 25, 2024. We will help Connor Ryan and his staff host visitors from the local community. Up to a 150 visitors are anticipated. ARS-GLC members are asked to volunteer in whatever way they see fit. You can bring trusses for and help set up for the truss show, manage parking, help run the plant sale and set up educational stations at different locations throughout the Leach Station grounds where they will offer a mix of short tours and educational vignettes . Potential topics for members to discuss include plant care, local hybridizer history, diversity of rhododendrons, rhododendron hybridizing, and native species to name just a few.
