Turf grass has minimal benefits to the environment, and is planted in a lot of unused areas. Learn about how to use lawn spaces consciously, and practical skills to remove turf to create functional wildlife habitat.
 
July 17th, 1-2pm "What's in a Soil Test?"
Soil tests, fertilizers, and soil amendments are confusing. What does the soil test really say? And what's the difference between compost and fertilizer? Tune in to learn how to make decisions on what's needed in your landscape.
