Meadow It! Free Online Webinar
**10 -11:30 a.m., Saturday, May 22**
Join this a free online webinar to learn how to create a beautiful pollinator meadow in your lawn. A popular gardening alternative, meadows attract native birds and other beneficial species to your yard. A meadow boosts soil structure to retain rainwater and reduces runoff and erosion. Create a drought-resistant, climate change-resistant carbon sequestering landscape while also creating a beautiful oasis of color, texture and wildlife using a variety of plants, shrubs and trees. During this free webinar, you'll learn how to design, lay out and prep your site, map the sun and shade, what to plant and how to maintain it.
