And so it begins with Christmas....

The first week for Longwood's PG Class of 2012 started with much excitement and anticipation!  

The day I arrived every single person had a wonderfully energetic and positive attitude. I had the chance to have dinner with all of my class mates and our fearless leader, Brian Trader. Later that week, the 2012 class had the opportunity to listen to the Longwood historian and Archivist. It feels great to be apart of this amazing garden.

During a brown bag lunch, the class was able to meet many of the smiling faces that we have the opportunity to work with! Then the week came to a close and snow blanketed the ground.  My first weekend at Longwood was filled with shoveling snow, but working at such a beautiful garden with wonderful people made it a special time. 

Classes begin Monday. I will be taking the Principles of Horticulture, Green roof plants, and Conifers! Along with those classes, I will be working in the conservatory removing christmas and replacing it with Orchids.
