Please note the special time of 2:30PM for this event!

This program provides a comprehensive overview of native plants and their essential role in ecosystem health. Concepts covered include the co-evolution of plants and animals; the fundamental importance of native plants to a functioning food web; and the differences among native, naturalized, and invasive plants. Presenter Claudia Thompson, founder of Grow Native Massachusetts, will give a “tour” of her garden showing its steady transformation from a conventional urban yard to a landscape rich with native plant species and habitat for birds, butterflies, and wildlife. Full of exceptional photographs, this program will help you "get" why native plants are so important and inspire you to use your own garden to make the world a better place!  Brought to you byt the Wilmington, Andover, and Chelmsford  libraries.
