I have approached the John C. Pair Horticulture Center for a MakeICT field trip to the research center.
We have not worked a date and time for the field trip. Week days and Saturdays can be made to work.
If you have questions about your garden, yard, trees or most anything growing these are the professionals that can answer them.
Jason Griffins, the Director, has agreed to conduct the tour, if we have enough interest.
