Saturday, May 27: New York Botanical Garden ( http://nybg.org/ )

On Saturday, May 27, meet Joel Nevis in Grand Central Terminal at the clock at 10:00 for a 10:23 train departure (purchase a $3 City Ticket for one-way travel, or buy two for round trip travel, on Metro North Harlem Line) or meet him at the Mosholu entrance of the NYBG at 11:00. Look for him in a purple docent's shirt and white cap.

If people arrive on time, he can get up to six people in for free. The plan is to head over to the Native Plant Garden for an 11:30 tour and then wander around the Rock Garden or perennial gardens at leisure. Bring a lunch or purchase lunch at one of two cafeterias.
