About this Event

Gain a comprehensive understanding of what native plants are and their importance in ecological conservation. Discover the unique characteristics and benefits that make them well-suited for local gardens. By incorporating these plants into your garden, you can create a vibrant and sustainable ecosystem while preserving and promoting the natural heritage of your area.

Learn how to choose the right native plants for your garden based on factors such as sun exposure, soil type, moisture levels, and aesthetics. Understand the concept of plant communities and how to create balanced and visually appealing landscapes.

Discover valuable resources, including books, websites, and organizations dedicated to native plant gardening. Connect with local gardening communities and explore opportunities for hands-on learning and plant exchanges.

First half of class will be indoors @ Shamrock Park in Nature Center in Venice followed by a tour of the UF/IFAS Sarasota County Extension Demonstration Gardens at Shamrock Park.
