Guest speaker and Meadow Brook volunteer, Colleen Peters, will present “Matilda, the Gardener and Her Garden.”This program will celebrate Matilda Dodge Wilson’s journey as a gardener and the achievements she accomplished through study, collaboration, and sharing. In 1915-1916 the Green House at Meadow Brook Farms became a part of Matilda’s plant world. She used this facility to produce entries for the Detroit Flower and Garden Show. Her creation was “Novelty Anemone Chrysanthemum” by Mrs. Alfred G. Wilson. Colleen, with the help of research by Kim Zelinski and interviews with others at Meadow Brook Hall, will provide a private glance into the plant and gardening world of a woman we have so come to admire.
Coffee and refreshments will be served at 9:15 a.m. with program to follow at 10:00 am.
Guests are welcome and reservations are not required. There is a $5 non-member fee. For more information, call 248-364-6210, email [email protected]
