Landscape Border Bounties - The Power of Planting for Wildlife and Wellbeing
Date: May 17, 2024 from 7pm to 8pm
Cost: Free (Donations gratefully accepted)
Location: Dexter Hall, Charlton Public Library
Presenters: Nate Fournier and Lucy Smith of Reimagined Roots
Program Summary: Habitat borders attract and support some of the widest diversities of birds, insects and animals. Planned plantings along borders between woods and lawns ease the aesthetic transition, while benefiting the local fauna. Landowners can take advantage of the beauty of flowering trees, bushes and plants while being able to forage some fresh fruit and berries for themselves. Nate and Lucy will walk you through the benefits of border landscaping and some strategies that can be put to use in your own yard.
