Reminder of the "The Importance of Meadows in our Ecosystem and Citizen Science" presentation at the Lancaster Community Library, Kilmarnock, May 8, 2018, 1:15 to 2:30PM.
Also check out the meadows page for the updated resources.
In the fragmented ecosystems where we live and work, the importance of diversity in our landscapes cannot be over emphasized. Here is a great article that is not too technical and easy to read on why a diversity of native plants is so important when we are practicing ecological landscaping and gardening.
Attention all potential meadow makers:
This is the perfect time of year to go through seed catalogues and fantasize about your spring meadow.
To get you started, below are some places to buy seeds. Not all of the seeds are native to the Northern Neck. For more information on our natives refer to NNNPS.org.
