Invite Nature to Your Yard!
Invite Nature to Your Yard!
Join us as we learn all about creating more eco-friendly yards!
Jim Kleinwachter of The Conservation Foundation will show us how the “typical” yard can easily be improved to help reduce water run-off, increase wildlife habitat, and improve the soil. The benefits of improving the environment are many including, reducing your water use, creating more area for birds and butterflies, reducing chemical use, less lawn mowing, and learning about invasive species that may need to be controlled in your yard.
This education program will cover a variety of techniques for transforming your yard, including the use of rain barrels, rain gardens, and the selection and use of native plants to solve yard problems. Native plants grow naturally and need no watering or fertilizers once established. Additionally, these plants thrive on their own and do well, even during drought conditions. Their deep roots hold the soil, allow water to filter down deep into the ground where it belongs and, because they “evolved” here, they attract dozens of species of beneficial wildlife such as butterflies and songbirds.
Participants will receive complimentary a butterfly attraction & identification pamphlet, a native plant guide, and a rain garden (solving water issue) brochures!
