About the event
What, shop for native plants at a big box store!?!? What plants make the cut? Learn which species work best together and how to use plant behavior as a guide. This is a perfect introduction for those new to resilient design, in which we let plants lead management — within reason.
There will be time for questions after the presentation. The program will be recorded and available for viewing for 30 days.
