Framed by an historical backstory, New England businesses will tell us their stories, share their experience and give us a chance to consider what's next!

Bill Oates and the Australian Garden History Society will provide the historical backstory, and introduce three local businesses making a difference in the New England landscape:

• Olivia Schaeffer, Cedar Nursery + Design

• Ness Harwood, Hello Lovely Sustainable Floristry

• Barry Philp, New England Peonies

Light lunch is provided at NOVA as part of this free event.
