Speaker – Kari Arney – Garden Center manager at Sullivan’s Hardware & Garden. Kari is a graduate of Purdue University, a Horticulturist who has been running Sullivan’s garden center for about 11 years. The subject of her talk will be design and creation of Holiday Pots, and she will provide us with a live demonstration.
