Gardening for Wildlife: Using Nature As Your Guide
Charles Smith, a naturalist and ecologist with over 22 years of experience working in natural resource management, will share his knowledge of how ecosystem work to restore health to your back yard or larger natural areas. This Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy program will cover establishing goals for your project, inventorying the area around the restoration site, building on remaining natural areas, and developing a palette of locally native plant species that will support wildlife and provide ecosystem and aesthetic benefits. We will also discuss how to address challenges including poor soils, deer browse, and invasive species. More information at www.loudounwildlife.org
