I was thinking that we could publish the story on the website as soon as it’s ready and then share it on Facebook and in the next conference email. If we include it in the conference email, perhaps it would be interesting to offer a breakout session on the topic? </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">My working title is</div><div class=""><div style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: initial; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" class=""><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;" class=""><b class="">Chicago's New Native Garden Registry Needs Go Further for Gardeners</b></span></div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I’ll stay tuned for feedback on the email newsletter.
