SUMMARY:How to Maintain a Native Plant Garden: Managing the changes that occur over time
DESCRIPTION:You have chosen and planted your native plant garden or meadow\, and a fewyears later\, whatever design you planned is no longer in place.\nSome plants have spread\, others seem crowded\, some are turning brown in summer\, others are thriving. Unexpected plants have popped up as birds\, squirrels and the plants themselves have put seeds into your garden. Your growing conditions may have shifted due to climate change. You will learn the choices you have for managing the changes in your garden\, depending on your preferences and your site conditions. There will be time for questions and discussion.. Presented by Amy.

SUMMARY:Beyond Flowering Plants: Helping Pollinators Thrive Year Round
DESCRIPTION:This talk includes a brief introduction to the biodiversity crisis\, explaining why providing habitat for pollinators is essential for maintaining a sustainable ecosystem. Amy will show that pollinators not only need flowering native plants as food for adults\, but also need specialized native plants that provide food for their young. You will learn about the kinds of shelter needed year round for pollinator health and reproduction\, and how to manage your landscape to provide it. Amy will also discuss the need for water and the importance of minimizing night light. She will share extensive resources on choosing and sourcing native plants and managing our landscapes to support biodiversity. Presented by Amy.
