Pollinator Pathway of Lamoille County is sponsoring speaker Denise Ciastko of NativearthSeeds, LLC On Saturday, 1/11/25 from 12 Noon to 1 PM at the Lanpher Memorial Library in Hyde Park, VT. Join us for an engaging exploration of the many advantages native plants bring to home landscapes. Drawing on over 30 years of hands-on experience, Denise's lecture will introduce you to the beauty, resilience, and ecological importance of true native species. Topics include creating rain gardens, shady nooks, sunny spectacles, selecting the right native plants, understanding the unique roles of native plant communities, and recognizing the characteristics that make each plant essential to pollinators. She'll demystify terms like "nativars," "cultivars," and "hybridized" and explain why planting true native species is crucial for preserving our unique biodiversity.
Discover how pollinators perceive their environment and their fascinating connections with native plants. Perfect for beginners, this one-hour lecture includes an open Q&A session offering you the opportunity to ask questions and deepen your understanding of working with native plants.
Refreshments served, co-sponsored by Thompson's Flour Shop of Morrisville, VT. For more info visit pollinator-pathway.org/towns/lamoille or email pollinatorpathwaylc.com
