Description
Our next "Stone Soup" gathering will feature remarks by Elizabeth Ryan from the Arnold Arboretum. Elizabeth studies how plants will respond to climate change. She is interested in finding out which plants will thrive outside of their current habitats (becoming potentially invasive), and which are in the greatest danger of extinction. In her talk, she will discuss the cutting-edge research being conducted at this complex interface of climate change and plant adaptation, and explore how botanical gardens and arboretums can play an exciting role in these efforts.. We hope you will join us May 30th to enjoy tasty soup and learn about what is going on with the state of our climate, and its impact on plants. Soup served at 5:30; speaker at 6:00 pm. Please rsvp by calling 617-333-0924. Donations welcome.
