This Zoom workshop will focus on enhancing biodiversity to create healthy habitats in the soil and landscape where you live.

Participants will:

• Learn about design techniques to foster healthy habitats that improve water quality and soil health.
• Be impressed by the many native grasses, wildflowers and shrubs found in Kent County.
• Review the steps a landowner will take to prepare for and install native plants.
• Using case studies, be shown examples of beautiful landscapes that impress the neighbors and beckon butterflies, birds and bees to visit.
