On March 19-21, 2021, the Tennessee Valley Chapter of Wild Ones will present its first Virtual Symposium and Expo. In three half-day sessions, a group of nationally- and internationally-recognized speakers in the field of native plant gardening and responsible landscaping will present live webinar programs to educate and inspire home gardeners and landscape professionals. Before, between and following the speaker presentations, 1-3 minute pre-recorded videos or presentations from sponsors, exbibitors and vendors will be shown to all Virtual Symposium attendees. Additional sponsor/exhibitor/vendor exposure to the Symposium audience will also be provided through downloadable materials, graphics, advertising and social media preceding and during the symposium.
On March 27th, the Saturday following the Virtual Symposium, at the First Horizon Pavilion (home of the Chattanooga Market) in downtown Chattanooga, native plant nurseries and other vendors are invited offer products for sale to the general public. This Outdoor Native Plant Marketplace in a large, covered space, is expected to attract hundreds of Tennessee Valley gardeners, eager to establish and expand native plant gardens in our region. For the safety of all, masks will be required.
