The Tennessee Valley Chapter of Wild Ones presents, “Gardening with Native Plants”, a series of six introductory classes about how to garden with native plants. These classes, led by experienced gardeners from the Tennessee Valley, are free and open to the public. The classes cover everything from why to use native plants to how to plan and maintain native gardens. Join us for all of the classes, several, or even just one. The classes are complimentary and together will greatly add to your understanding of native plant gardening.
Class one: “Native Plants, So What? Why Native Plants Matter” with Lisa Lemza is an overview of many of the principles you will learn about in detail. It is a ‘survey course,’ designed to provide the latest science for the context of what we are trying to apply in individual yards and landscapes.
