Thursday, February 20, 5:30 - 7:30
Aubree Keurajian graduated from Cornell University in 2015,
with a bachelor's degree in the Science of Natural and Environmental Systems.
After dabbling in academia and the public sector, she started Ungardening
Native Plants to bring the tools and ideas of ecological restoration to the
homeowner. Her talk will discuss nuances around the definitions of
"native", "invasive", and "weed", as well as why
gardening for nature means more than just switching plants. We'll discuss some
of the darker origins of our garden-industrial complex, and how community-based
ecological change can be incredibly effective!
Admission is free. Guests pay for their own food and drink. Please join us!
