 We
are excited to announce two exceptional travel
opportunities that are coming up through our American
Horticultural Society Travel Study program. In late
September, we will experience the beauty and interest of
the “Spring
Garden Festivals in the Highlands of Australia,”
and in January 2009 we will discover the “Awe-Inspiring
Gardens of New Zealand.”
Mary Kroening will serve as escort for both Australia
and New Zealand. She has ten years of experience with
garden-related travel as owner of Hidden Treasures
Botanical Tours, our new AHS international travel
partner. Mary has crafted the itineraries for each trip
with our AHS travelers in mind, hand-selecting
destinations that are unique, showcase outstanding
horticulture, and offer exceptional once-in-a-lifetime
experiences.
For more information about either of these travel
opportunities, please contact Mary at Hidden Treasures
Botanical Tours at (573) 881-6316 or
info@hiddentreasuresbotanicaltours.com, or visit
http://www.hiddentreasuresbotanicaltours.com/ahs.html.
For those looking for travel opportunities beyond
January, please see the list below for additional
upcoming international tours. We are pleased to announce
that our 2009 Travel Study program will include two
offerings escorted by a longtime favorite of AHS
travelers - Susie Orso. We are working with Susie on
excursions to the Netherlands in April and Italy in May.
Watch The American Gardener magazine in the coming
months for news of additional domestic travel offerings
in 2009.
