SUSIE NORRIS, PRESIDENTHi my name is Susan Norris. I like to be called Susie. I grew up in the Eastern Townships of Québec. My husband, Eric, and I retired here a few years ago and love it. I've always loved gardens. I had a small gardening business before moving to Nova Scotia. I enjoy many sports as well as continuing to learn more about plants and gardening.
