West Cook Wild Ones invites all members to our annual member meeting on Sunday, January 28, 2024 at 2:00 pm in the Veterans Room of the Oak Park Public Library-Main Branch.
First, A Little Business: We want to celebrate our accomplishments, plan for the year ahead, introduce new board members and celebrate departing board members. In 2023, we hosted nine virtual programs, our spring native plant sale enjoyed robust sales, our in-person native garden tour featured eleven beautiful gardens, our grant program helped fund 23 native gardens, and our membership grew to over 300 strong!
Then, A Lot of Fun: None of our accomplishments would be possible without our members! We want to thank you for your support by offering a celebration featuring a garden design workshop with Jeremy Ohmes of Wild World Gardens. Jeremy will give a brief presentation on basic native garden design followed by an opportunity to sketch up your own ideas for your garden. We will have materials on hand and Jeremy will be available to give us pointers.
We look forward to getting better acquainted in January! We will have time to chat with each other, and will offer snacks and some pretty terrific goodies to give away!
