Our Chapter will hold its 48th annual Wildflower Show on Saturday, April 22 from 10am - 4pm at West Valley College in Saratoga. The show’s theme is Climate Change - What Can I Do? This family-friendly event features hundreds of native wildflowers and plants on display as well as a variety of activities for all ages.

A wealth of talks will be offered during the show. Our keynote speaker is Bay Area author Mary Ellen Hannibal, who will talk about the “Big, Little World” of citizen science. Her talk combines deep personal notes with simple explanations for what you can do to make a difference. She is the author of Citizen Scientist: Searching for Heroes and Hope in an Age of Extinction. Other talks and workshops will offer the opportunity to learn about habitat gardening, rainwater capture, bioblitzes, wildflower arrangements, macrophotography and more.
