* On Monday afternoon the Davidson Garden Club is coordinating a self-guided tour of several gardens in Davidson. These winter gardens will have illustrations of seasonal herbaceous plant material.  The tour is included in Monday registration or may be purchased separately for $10.00.

Maps will be available and the gardens are within the town limits. Meet the gardeners and be inspired by their artistic creations of "Herbaceous Havens" for humans and wildlife.  
 

Book signing and plant sales in the Atrium will take place during breaks and after lunch.
