From 6:30 to 7:00, before the meeting starts, Beth Umberger will be selling native plants leftover from the plant sales earlier this year. Cash and checks only. If you manage a public garden, Beth will donate the plants. See this list for species available.

Our guest speaker is Bruce Grimes, a Master Naturalist and who currently serves as Treasurer for our VNPS Chapter.  The topic is on Pollinator Flower Flies in Virginia.  We will look at representatives of many of the types that are in Virginia, especially those you might be likely to encounter, and examine some of the important services beyond pollination that flower flies provide to us in the environment.
