The talk is free and open to the public

STRATFORD - The Stratford Library will continue its  “Sunday Afternoon Talks,” a monthly series of informative and entertaining talks with professional gardener Colleen Plimpton at 2 p.m. April 10.
"The popular program invites notable locals to speak in an informal atmosphere on a wide range of topics," according to a statement.
Plimpton’s springtime program, “Hello My Garden!” will also kick-off “National Library Week,” the statement said.
“Sunday Afternoon Talks” is free and open to the public.


"During the latter stages of an initial career as a clinical social worker, Colleen Plimpton switched gears and entered a part-time gardening track at the New York Botanical Garden," the statement said. "Her goal, subsequent to years of gardening all over the United States, was to become a professional gardener."

Plimpton is a member of Garden Writers Association, the Federated Garden Clubs of America, Tri-State Hosta Society, Mad Gardeners, The Nature Conservancy, The Garden Conservancy, Highstead Arboretum, the Connecticut Horticultural Society, the New York Botanical Garden and many other groups, the statement said.
