Gardening with native plants can be a satisfying journey. Come on a walking tour of three gardens at Touch of Nature with Master Naturalist, Lyle White, to learn why he made the switch to improving the site's landscaping with native plants. Each garden has origins linked to unique goals including education demonstration, erosion control and reduction of mowing, historical ethnobotany, and preserving rare flora of southern Illinois. Learn about methods and approaches used:
-What worked or didn't
-See results from 2-6 garden seasons
-Be inspired to make the switch in your own backyard.
