Join us on March 31st at Sargent Memorial Library, 427 Massachusetts Ave., Boxborough for our Annual Meeting with keynote speaker, Trevor Smith, who is an award-winning regenerative landscape designer and founder of ReEarth Solutions. He will talk about the on the why, what, and how of native planting in your yard’s gardens and lawn. Transitioning to native planting can lead to many benefits, such as: Less maintenance and lower costs – Believe it or not, native trees, shrubs, and plants require little or no fertilizer, irrigation, and weeding, once established; Reduced need for mowing your lawn; Less water use – Many native alternatives have deep root systems which improve water efficiency through decreased need for irrigation. They conserve limited natural groundwater, especially in times of drought conditions. We will discuss different plant choices for your lawn and/or gardens that could turn your yard into a beautiful and sustainable habitat.
