I just learned about this cool presentation that’s happening tonight! Plant and rock nerds unite!
Following in their Footsteps:
The 1887 Grays Peak Trip :Alice Eastwood & Alfred Russel Wallace
October 15th, 2025
Jamestown Community Hall
18250 Main Street, Jamestown
Doors Open 5:00pm Presentation 5:30pm
Amy is an Assistant Curator in Horticulture and has been at Denver Botanic Gardens since 2008. She will be retelling the exciting story of the plant explorations of Eastwood and Wallace in Colorado alpine regions of Grays Peak and how she and staff of Betty Ford Alpine Gardens later recreated those adventures and plant collections.
The story is wonderful, the plants are spectacular, and the alpine scenery is grand!
Bring your own non-alcoholic beverage, finger food to share, or just your own dinner/snacks.
Open to the public. Join us for this free event!
