Meetings are held the third Sunday of each month, September through May. In June we have a picnic at a member's home and in August there is usually a trip to a Chicago area commercial grower. Meetings start at 1:30 PM (preceded by ribbon judging of blooming plants starts at 1:00 PM)  and are normally held at Olbrich Botanical Gardens, 3330 Atwood Ave., Madison. Meetings include a brief business session, an educational presentation, refreshments and socialization.
