Native plants are the foundation of our ecosystems and invertebrates, especially insects, pass along the sun's energy that these plants collect to the animals that are part of the ecological web. Almost all birds and most other vertebrates would not survive without native plants and their associated insects. We will explore this critical yet often hidden service and discuss how individual people and their communities, by the selection and planting of native plants, can link their landscape to the local ecosystem and help sustain the intricate web of life around us.
About the presenter:�Ted Alway is a long-time Peshastin resident, orchardist and founder of Derby Canyon Natives nursery. He went to college to study Horticulture and left with a degree in Entomology; this presentation includes two of his greatest loves, bugs and native plants!
