Here's a start on the many upcoming Spring and Summer events for plant lovers. There are innumerable learning events and opportunities to 'network'.
Even better, there's a great many opportunities to teach or volunteer. There's a need somewhere for your skills, time, knowledge.
Most of the organizations sponsoring the following events also welcome your membership or volunteer time.
Also, to the best of my knowledge, all of these events are free, no charge, nada, the money stays in your pocket.
