EcoBeneficial Gardening 101: Boosting the Ecosystem In Your Own Yard

Even the most beautiful gardens are not always healthy ecosystems. Your yard is more than a combination of trees, shrubs and perennials – it’s complex system where all living things are connected. Gardening with an ecosystem approach contributes to species diversity, attracting and supporting more birds, butterflies, pollinators, and beneficial insects. Guest speaker, Kim Eierman, explains how the design choices you make, the plants you select, and the maintenance practices you use can make a huge difference in creating a beautiful, healthy ecosystem, filled with life. Kim is an Environmental Horticulturist specializing in ecological landscapes and native plants. Adults Only. Members Free, Non-members $7. Programs require pre-registration.
