February Membership Meeting

Wednesday,  February 22, 2012 – 7:15  p.m.  Vestal Public Library

NATIVE LANDSCAPING

This presentation on Native Landscaping is gleaned from information gathered at seminars at Cornell University and books purchased from those presenters. It will cover topics such as basic definitions, the noxious nine aliens and their native alternatives, consequences of planting non-natives, and things you can do. A handout and resource list of nurseries, books, and websites will be provided.

Karen Anderson – Speaker
Karen has been gardening for 50 years and is a Master Gardener through Broome County Cooperative Extension for 6 years. She was the team leader for the bird garden for 4 years and is now a member of the trees and shrubs team. At home, she grows vegetables, fruits, perennials, shade plants, herbs, and boggy plants. She is a retired French and Spanish teacher from the Chenango Valley School District (I made her promise to only speak English). Hobbies other than gardening include hiking, skiing, swimming, dog obedience training, travel, and reading.
