The Nashville Rose Society Programming Committee and the Executive Committee members are working hard to plan the Calendar of Events for 2022. The schedule is subject to change, but you should pencil in these events so that you will not miss any of the informative meetings and workshops to help you grow and show beautiful roses in the new year.
Monthly meetings will normally be held from 2-4:00pm on the first Sunday of the month at Belmont in Ayers C & D (at least through June 2022). The plan is to return to Cheekwood once the renovations of Botanic Hall are completed.
