Converting Turf to a Native Meadow

Tired of maintaining your lawn? You should be! Why continue pouring time, energy, and money into a monotonous expanse of alien plants that contribute very little to the environment when you could be enjoying a vibrant native meadow that supports beneficial wildlife and the ecosystem? In this class, we'll look at ways to replace unnecessary lawn areas with beautiful native plant communities that are easier to maintain and healthier for the environment. We'll cover different methods for removing turf, the selection of plant species suitable for your goals and site conditions, how to establish meadows from seeds, plugs and container plants, and how to maintain your meadow for years to come. You'll end up wondering why you didn't do this years ago!
