Welcome back! Philadelphia Botanical Club meetings

Welcome back! Philadelphia Botanical Club meetings resume next week with our annual fall kick-off: reports on summer botanizing. Come join us virtually on Zoom on Thursday, September 26th at 6:15 p.m.

Our virtual meeting will feature members’ botanical photos from the summer. We will not meet in person this month, but look for in-person meetings with a Zoom option starting in October.
