The Georgia Botanical Society Holiday Party is scheduled for Saturday, December 7, at the Newman Wetlands Center, 2755 Freeman Rd. in Hampton, Ga.—the same location as last year. Join us for a day of friends, cheer, plant talk and memories beginning at 10 a.m. We will have a potluck lunch, so bring your favorite dish, nonalcoholic drink, or dessert. 

All members—longtime and new—are all equally welcome to come. Ask plant questions, share stories, swap native seeds. Make a posterboard of your plant activities and show it off! If you would like to help out with the party, have ideas for announcements, or have questions about the event, email: . 

The Newman Wetlands Center is an educational facility operated by Clayton County Water Authority. It features wildlife exhibits and has an outside, half-mile boardwalk that provides an opportunity to observe wading birds, woodpeckers, turtles, and a beaver lodge.
