What will I learn?

Enjoy the keynote address by Bruce Spangenberg plus choose from over 30 other breakout sessions to fill your day with education, information and new ideas.

After fielding 30 seasons worth of yard and garden questions from McHenry County area gardeners, there are a number of beneficial lessons to be learned. With a nearly endless supply of information out there in the form of suggestions, recommendations, and rules, Bruce will share guidelines to assure your plant management decisions are sound ones.
