Urban wildlife workshop

Discover how to provide much needed sanctuary for a diversity of wildlife  right in the backyard.

Guest Instructor Leslie Work will present The Arboretum’s Urban Wildlife Habitat Gardening workshop on April 13 from 9am to 4pm.

In that session participants will select native wild plants as well as common garden annuals, perennials, and shrubs to create gardens that are beautiful, and that provide food, shelter, and water for urban wildlife. They will learn how to cultivate evening magic with night-scented plants.

Garden maintenance and bird nest boxes will also be covered. Each participant will seed a flat of habitat plants to take home.

The registration fee is $75 plus tax and the registration deadline is April 6. For more information or to register, call The Arboretum at 824-4120 extension 52358.
