Free Landscape Plugs!

Have you heard the news about dwindling bee and bird populations and feel inspired to take action, but don’t know where to start? A solution to rebound these critical wildlife populations rest right in your backyard! In this workshop, gain the basic native garden skills and hands-on experience of converting a section of lawn into viable habitat to support critical wildlife species.

This workshop will give you confidence to put the skills to work in your own backyard! The first hour of the workshop will explore the fundamentals of ecological site prep and plant placement, based on the plant species’ sociabilities (growing pattern and organization) to create a native garden design on the Homefields farm property. The remaining two hours will be a hands-on installation of the group’s crafted native garden design.

Participants will be given free native landscape plugs to add to your own home landscape, courtesy of Homefields’ volunteer native plant grower, Matt Dilley. For the outside installation, please wear sturdy shoes and bring your favorite planting trowel, sun protection, and reusable water container.
