Plant Growers' 



Annual Summer Meeting 



Wednesday, August 14, 1991 

 Pleasant View Gardens, Pittsfield, NH 



This year's Summer Meeting will be 

 held at Pleasant View Gardens on 

 August 14. It looks like a lot will be 

 going on. 



Not only can you see the growth and 

 changes made by the Huntingtons at 

 Pleasant View, but you can walk next 

 door to see what John Bryant's been 

 doing at Millican Nursery, or travel to 

 Loudon (transportation provided) to 

 visit Doug Cole's D. S. Cole Growers. 

 All three operations are well worth a 

 visit. 



Included in the day's events will be a 

 tailgate trade show. As of May third, 

 twenty-five vendors had already 

 signed on. More will do so by August, 

 so there should be a variety of prod- 

 ucts and services displayed. 

 A new attraction this year will be the 

 guest speaker. Dan Gilrange, IPM 

 Specialist from the Cornell Coopera- 

 tive P^xtension, Riverhead, NY, will 

 give two talks. He will speak on "Put- 

 ting IPM to Work in Your Operation" 

 in the morning; in the afternoon, his 



topic will be "Recognizing and Manag- 

 ing Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus." It's 

 possible that people attending these 

 sessions can earn credit toward pesti- 

 cide licence recertification. 



Lunch will be an all-you-can-eat bar- 

 becue catered by Perillo's of Man- 

 chester. The menu includes barbe- 

 cued chicken, hot dogs, hamburgers, 

 sausages, potato salad, macaroni 

 salad, potato chips, corn on the cob, 

 and watermelon. 



Later in the afternoon, an auction of 

 products generously contributed by 

 the participating vendors will be held. 

 Proceeds will go to the Plant Growers' 

 scholarship fund. 



There's volleyball and horseshoes to 

 play. And a door prize (a weekend at 

 Waterville Valley) to win. ..it should be 

 a good day. ..a full day, with lots of 

 information and fun.

See you there!
