Events at Morven Park

This five-week course in sustainable gardening is a course that shows you how to work with nature, whether you garden in a city, suburb, or rural area. The US Botanic Garden and the Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center designed the course. This course will be useful to home gardeners concerned about supporting native wildlife, limiting runoff into the Chesapeake Bay, increasing their family's wellbeing or just having a positive impact on the world through their garden. The course also complements the training of Audubon At Home Ambassadors. Even one home garden can begin to repair the web of life! Lead instructor: Nan McCarry. Location: Morven Park, 17263 Southern Planter Lane, Leesburg. Cost: $20. Choose from one of the two sessions: Thursday evenings, Sept. 4 through Oct. 2, 6:45 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. or Saturday mornings, Sept. 6 through Oct. 4, 9:15 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Registration Required: Please contact Ann Garvey at agarvey@loudounwildlife.org for questions and registration.
