Bringing Nature Home: A Case for Native Gardening
Please join the Appalachian Audubon Society, the Mechanicsburg Parks and Recreation Department, and other community organizations, for a free presentation by Dr. Douglas Tallamy, Professor of Entomology and Wildlife Ecology from the University of Delaware, on Thursday, April 16th at the Mechanicsburg Middle School. Dr. Tallamy will help us to understand the consequences of the plant choices we make in our home landscapes, public spaces and parks. He will help us reconnect the dots in the circle of life, enabling us to create a healthier environment while increasing food and habitat for precious Pennsylvania species in decline, while still adding beauty to our gardens and landscapes.
