Garden Ecology, Strategies for LESS PESTS!

January 7, 1:00 PM EST
Park “Portico” Picnic Tables

Welcome to the first Emory Grove Garden Class of the new year with me, Rachel Economy, ecological edible garden designer & sustainable farming educator. I’m looking forward to planning and designing with y’all! This is my favorite way to get the year off to a good start.

In this workshop, we’ll address the true test of every gardener: pests!

We’ll learn about the ecology of the garden, and how pests come into it. We’ll identify four types of strategies that help keep pests off your crops, so YOU can eat them (and enjoy their beauty). We’ll then go over specific strategies in each of those types, and do an interactive activity that will help you start to plan and scheme for less-pests and more joy in your garden this year.

Note: If the weather forecast changes, I’ll send a zoom link to everyone who is registered, and to the neighborhood email list.

This helps me plan class activities by giving an estimate of how many people will be attending, so please register if you know you can come. However, if you realize last-minute that you can come, please still join us!
