GARDENING LESSONS WITH ELLIE NICKESON AND BETSY BURGESON
Please join the BTG every Wednesday morning from 8:00-9:30am for a Gardening Lesson from Betsy Burgeson or Ellie Nickeson, followed by hands-on gardening work with new friends.​
​
We have pinnies and gardening tools, but please bring a water bottle, gloves, and clippers if you have them, wear sturdy shoes, and be prepared to get a little dirty.
​
Thank you in advance for your willingness to contribute your time and effort to maintaining the natural beauty of Chautauqua. You do not need to be a BTG member to volunteer!

​
Weeks 2-5: Miller Park
