2008 a Great Year for The Burgess Arboretum

This year has been a great year for the Burgess Arboretum. We have had 3 very successful plant sales where we have raised over $2300 for the Burgess Arboretum. We had great support from the Master gardeners of Cherokee county and Paul pugliesee the Cherokee County Extension service. We had 2 very successful work days where we indexed section I and Section V in the Burgess Arboretum. We were featured twice in the Cherokee Tribune. We even got a front page cover article. We also got some great donations from donors to support the Burgess Arboretum. This Fall we planted a Princeton Elm tree in the Arboretum in Memory to one of our faculty members. This Blog has been a great tool for success for the Burgess Arboretum. 2008 was a great year for the Burgess Arboretum and we hope 2009 will be even better.
