From Weeds to Wildlife Habitat

  • Homefields Farm 150 Letort Road Millersville, PA, 17551 United States (map)

Explore how to transform a weedy patch in your piece of the planet into a high-functioning wildlife habitat! This outdoor workshop will help develop the skills in:

  • Common weed identification

  • Ecological practices for weed management

  • Ecological practices to repopulate a space into a biodiverse garden

Our collaborative planting project will involve editing the herbaceous layer of the existing Miyawaki Plot (rapid forest planting technique) at Homefields, sowing early successional seeds and planting native landscape plugs, grown from volunteer Matt Dilley and KindEarth Growers.

Please bring your favorite hand trowel, gloves, water bottle, and sturdy shoes. Participants will receive free native landscape plugs as a thank you for rebuilding biodiversity at Homefields!
