About the Connecticut Botanical SocietyBotanical Society Activities
A Passion for Plants: The First Century of the Connecticut Botanical SocietyIn 2003, the Connecticut Botanical Society celebrated its 100th anniversary! The century's activities are chronicled in A Passion for Plants: The First Century of the Connecticut Botanical Society, a book by Lauren Brown. This illustrated history of CBS describes the extraordinary skill and dedication of its founders - few of them professional botanists - and the combination of change and stability that has enabled the Society to continue its contributions to "a thorough knowledge of the state's flora." Also included are vignettes on selected individual members. To obtain a copy, send a check for $14.00 to:Connecticut Botanical Society P.O.
