Go in the entrance on the north side of Washington St. to the greenhouse to meet Kelly Burdick, nursery program manager.  We will have a tour of the nursery, learn about seed collection, collect seed and have a BYO picnic lunch.  We will provide snacks and water--bring a water bottle.  Afterwards we will have a guided tour of the forest preserve.  Want to carpool:  Contact Trish at [email protected]
