Green Mulch: Using Native Plants as Ground Covers

  • On-Line Zoom Class (map)

Do you find yourself in a habit of using wood mulch each year in your garden beds to suppress weeds? In this interactive online Zoom workshop, learn how to integrate native groundcovers (“green or living mulch”) amidst your perennial beds to reduce the time and energy spent towards editing out unwanted plants. This layer of your landscape also has the potential to hold the greatest plant diversity, helping to rebound dwindling pollinator populations! Through mimicking natural landscapes in your home garden, you can cut back on the financial and time resources used to apply wood mulch and spend more time enjoying the garden you created. Participants will practice a hands-on plant layering technique that they can use for future planning of their home landscape.

This workshop will take place via Zoom. Meeting instructions will be emailed to registered attendees in advance of the date.
