Native plants serve many roles in an ecosystem, including providing food and shelter for native wildlife and reducing demand on resources. Taking inspiration from Doug Tallamy, learn how you can give up some lawn and create a more pleasing, sustainable, and eco-friendly environment using native plants. Speaker is Forsyth County Master Gardener Harriet McCarthy, whose special interests include native plants and wildlife-sustaining landscapes, butterfly and hummingbird gardens, and the uses of medicinal plants in the earliest Moravian community at Historic Bethabara.

$5 / Free PJCBG Members. Bring your lunch, the Garden will provide drinks. Advance registration required. Registration closes on May 15 at 5:00pm.
