This month, Blue Ridge Pride's Generation+ Program (55+ LGBTQ+ community members) will be meeting at the NC Arboretum for our Connections social gathering! Join us for an afternoon nestled in the mountains as we learn together about local flora & unique challenges to biodiversity posed by invasive species. A speaker will be sharing their knowledge of botany and local species with us before we venture out into the gardens to enjoy the early blooms of Spring.

This event is completely free including parking! Make sure to mention "Blue Ridge Pride" at the gate. We will be meeting at the Education Center for a presentation before venturing out into the gardens. Snacks & beverages will be provided.
