    &lt;span class="x_s2"&gt;You don't need to be an experienced Flower Show exhibitor to enter Horticulture. Take a look around your&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;garden, patio, or home - you may already be growing a potential Flower Show entry!
  &lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div&gt;
    &lt;span class="x_s2"&gt;Our Horticulture Division includes opportunities to exhibit annuals, perennials, herbs, foliage, tree and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;shrub branches, succulents and cacti, fruits and vegetables, container-grown plants, and collections.
  &lt;/div&gt;

  &lt;div&gt;
    &lt;span class="x_s2"&gt;You don't have to grow something unusual or exotic. If you're excited about something you're growing,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;take a look at the classes below and see where it might fit. Not sure whether your plant, flower, branch, herb, fruit, or vegetable qualifies? Ask us! We're happy to help you find the right class and get started. Interested in entering Horticulture?

    &lt;span class="x_s2"&gt;Exhibit 2. "Pollinator Pathways: Connecting Communities, Protecting Pollinators" This educational&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;exhibit celebrates the Pollinator Pathway initiative, a grassroots effort to establish pesticide free corridors of native plants across our communities. By connecting fragmented green spaces in public areas and private yards, these pathways restore essential foraging and nesting habitats for bees, butterflies, and other vital insects. Visitors will learn how they can support pollinator health right in their own neighborhoods.

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chappaqua Garden Club Tour of Gilbertie's Organics&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Join us for a behind-the-scenes tour of &lt;strong&gt;Gilbertie's Organics&lt;/strong&gt;, one of the country's oldest certified organic growers and where the CGC sources herbs and veggies for our May Plant Sale, on &lt;strong&gt;Tuesday, October 27, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Located at &lt;strong&gt;65 Adam's Road, Easton, CT&lt;/strong&gt;, this tour will take us through the history and daily operations of this family-owned farm, which has been growing organically since 1922.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;During our visit, we'll learn about:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul data-spread="false"&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;The history of Gilbertie's Organics and its 100+ year legacy.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;How microgreens are grown and harvested.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;The process of growing and fulfilling orders for potted plants.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;What it means to be a certified organic farm.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Gilbertie's unique innovations, including their patented plant tags.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Visit to their witch hazel growing area.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;A visit to the soil barn to learn about the foundation of healthy plant growth.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether you're an experienced gardener or simply curious about sustainable growing practices, this tour offers a wonderful opportunity to learn, ask questions, and gain inspiration for your own garden.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cost:&amp;nbsp; $5&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
