RENEGADE GARDENER™
The lone voice of horticultural reason
The American Conifer Society
You know how we are, always looking to join the newest and hippest group, trend, movement, whatever. Fly-fishing? Yeah, had its moments before every Tom, Dick and Harry started tying flies. Chai tea lattes at Starbucks? Good for a while, until you realize what you really want is a cup of coffee. Membership at one of those 24-hour mini-gyms? I won’t tell anyone you stopped going if you don’t tell anyone I did.
Looking for something new to join that will remain valuable to you for the rest of your life? Join the American Conifer Society.
