DATE: Thursday, February 23
TIME: 6:30 PM
LOCATION: Second Congregational Church, 16 Court Square, Greenfield, MA »Masks are required!
After the Q&A, ecological landscape designer Patty O’Neill will present a draft design for People’s Pollinator Meadow at Just Roots. Then, Elizabeth Erickson & Mary Westervelt will introduce a new resource about pollinator gardens in Greenfield: Building a Pollinator Corridor in Greenfield, Park by Park, and Yard by Yard.
Owen’s talk is the first in a series of talks and videos about lawns inspired by Doug Tallamy, scientist and author. Tallamy sees lawns as ‘food deserts’ in the eyes of bees and other pollinators. Click here to learn more about Owen’s talk and more.
