Cindy Tyler is the American Horticultural Society’s newest Board member, and she traveled to Alexandria for her first Board of Directors meeting in September. This two-day session was action packed and intense, balanced perfectly with a heartwarming and magical gathering of nearly two hundred avid AHS supporters at the “Harvest of Health and Happiness” Gala at River Farm. The Gala raised close to $200,000, and it will be a tough act to follow as we plan next year’s event.
