June 26
NHLA Twilight Meeting at the world headquarters for Service Credit Union, 3003 Lafayette Road (Rte. 1), Portsmouth, NH. The site was designed by Oehme and Van Sweden and built by Piscataqua Landscaping, from Elliot, ME. This site is amazing and has thousands of perennials and is one of the largest landscape projects built in NH in several years. The Maine Landscape and Nursery Association and The Granite State Landscape Architects will also be there, making it a great place to meet and network with a lot of new people. It is a beautiful piece of work and worth your time to come see it. I think that this is the first time that these three groups have had a joint meeting and we would like to make it an annual event. This event is free, but please register with Jon Batson, Chair, NHLA Education Committee, jontree13@aol.com
