Speaker: Barbara Sullivan
Learn how you can cope with climate change (heat waves, drought, flooding, shifting plant zones) by creating resilient gardens suited to your own natural ecosystems.
Gardeners can become part of the solution by designing spaces that attract and benefit native wildlife, promote healthy soil, and use sustainable, climate-friendly practices. The presentation will emphasize the use of native plants and will present alternatives to lawn grass. Attendees will learn about plants that are suited to the North Carolina Piedmont. Be encouraged, gardeners have a lot of great options for adapting to and mitigating climate change.
Copies of Barbara’s book Climate Change Gardening for the South can be purchased online in advance or in-person at her lecture.
