GO WILD! with Native Plants
Saturday, March 11th
|
This is the second year we're hosting an informational seminar, and it's
FREE to the public. Justin Kroening from the Stone Silo Prairie Gardens in DePere will speak on "Urban Landscaping and Backyard Habitats". Justin is an expert in the field, and Stone Silo Prairie Gardens specializes in wildflowers and grasses native to the Upper Midwest. Justin works professionally to promote, educate, and install native landscapes. Also presenting is Jim Schultz and his presentation is on "A 30 acre prairie from scratch...what was I thinking?" Jim is a prairie enthusiast, sheep farmer, wildlife photographer, and retired biology teacher. Attendees can also join-in on several table discussions with local native plant experts/enthusiasts...topics include: shore-land restoration, rain gardens, landscaping with natives, and creating the Wittenberg school's outdoor classroom. Many great door prizes too. Don't miss this opportunity to learn about creating habitat for native plants and wildlife, and join the ever-growing group of "wild" gardeners! |

And a special thanks to our speakers…Bob Dumke (one of our own chapter members), Justin Kroening from Stone Silos Prairie Gardens, and Neil Diboll from Prairie Nursery. I think we all learned a lot and are inspired to get out in the garden! Follow us on Facebook for upcoming events, we’d love to have you as an active member of our chapter.
