    Owner, Yellow Springs Farm Native Plant Nursery

    The instructor, a native plant expert, will discuss native plants that are not only attractive and require less maintenance and water but also support both resident and migratory species. Learn about the berries birds prefer and the host plants required by butterfly larvae for food and egg laying. This class will explore creating a beautiful home landscape and connecting to nature at the same time. Catherine will help with plant identification and discuss the natural history of some of the more common native plants available for the home landscape.
