Join us for this sustainability webinar to learn more about how to improve your garden from the ground up by using sustainable materials! Materials management often goes on behind the scenes, but builds the foundation for the plants we grow and landscape we maintain. You will hear from three gardens that have found ways to reduce, reuse, and recycle that go above and beyond. Learn the story of a garden built on a former landfill and hear about practices like composting and sustainable lawn care that you can implement in your own garden. Join us after the presentations for a 'Sustainability Insights' session to get your questions about materials management answered! 

Speakers:

Emily Reuther, Assistant Garden Supervisor and Sustainable Landscapes Coordinator, Swarthmore College 

MaryLynn Mack, Chief Operating Officer, South Coast Botanic Garden

Sanna O'Sullivan, Head Gardener, Miami Beach Botanical Garden

Cost: $15 for members, $30 for non-members
