with Wendy Sue Harper, Ph.D.

North Branch Nature Center
In this presentation, you will learn strategies for creating more beautiful and biodiverse gardens. Biodiversity is the foundation of ecological soil, plant, pest management, and thus, ecological resilience. In our gardens, we can better manage our soil and better design vegetative architectures to promote beneficial organisms and suppress pests. When we use soil and plant strategies to build in preventative pest suppression, we build in ecological resilience.
Since 1989, Wendy Sue Harper has taught ecological agriculture, soil science, and composting to college students, farmers, and gardeners. Dr. Harper’s business, WSH Consulting, provides educational and technical services to the farming and gardening community. Currently, she teaches agricultural biodiversity at Green Mountain College’s Master of Science in Sustainable Food Systems.
Your $5 admission helps us to continue to provide public gardening workshops and presentations.
