We will be holding our informal interviews on December 5 and 12, 2007. Our interviews will beheld at Garfield Park Conservatory. Your fee of $225.00 isdue at that time. I will be in touch with you in November to set up an interview appointment.

Enjoy the rest of the growing season and Chicago's glorious fall. Keep in touch with the Master Gardener Program by checking into our blog (see my signature) Add it to your "Favorites" list.

You are about to embark on a wonderful learning experience. I look forward to meeting you.
