Regenerating Urban Land: Working with Plants [In-person]

Tuesday, June 28, 6:30-7:30 pm  
Location: Tiny Diner 

Instructors: Paula Westmoreland, agroecologist and co-founder of Ecological Design

This is the second workshop in a four-part series, Regenerating Urban Land. This series is brought to you in partnership with Ecological Design and MSHS. 

Plants produce food for most of life on Earth. Our understanding of plants is rapidly changing as we discover the complexity of how plants communicate and live in community. As humans, we have a role and responsibility in nurturing plant life. This workshop will discuss some of the latest science, the ecological partnerships to cultivate in your work with plants, design principles you can use in organizing plants into communities, and top tips for supporting plant life during climate change.
