Saturday Speaker Series

Year after year, expert speakers in our popular Saturday Series draw an audience from far and near. Participants leave with knowledge they can use in their gardens, yards, and homes. Some events include demonstrations. The Hamilton College campus is an accredited arboretum; please consider exploring if you attend one of our events.

All events in this series take place at 10:00 a.m. on Saturdays. They are free and open to the public.
