Ecological Garden
CLEAN-UP & SPRING PREP

Curious how you can clean up your garden this winter to create a pleasant, presentable space that is sustainable for your local wildlife? Join instructor Kaity Bevenour, native plant specialist & owner of Parallel Nursery, for a review of landscape management techniques for wildlife support! We’ll go beyond “leave the leaves” and discuss exactly how to structure your clean-up to meet your aesthetic & ecological goals. At the conclusion of the lecture portion we will take a walk through the garden to view some of these practices! Students will take home a book of their choosing for identification help or further reading.
