Green Citizen Webinar: Beyond the Lawn: Ecoscaping

Event: Green Citizen Webinar: Low-Impact, Zero Waste Living

Time: 2 - 3 pm

Green Citizen micro-learning stimulates important beginner-level conversations about sustainability. This month, we present the topic "Beyond the Lawn: Ecoscaping".

Sustainable landscaping balances aesthetic appeal with environmental responsibility. Traditional turf grass lawns and hardscaping materials dominate the market and ecoscaping comprises less than 10% of residential and commercial landscaping. Practices like permaculture, xeriscaping and native gardening create self-sustaining, biodiverse ecosystems that work with nature rather than against it.

The session includes a presentation by youth moderators Shreya Madhu and Nimisha Choudhary, and, an interview with experts Paulette Platko and Mary Abercrombie. A suggested donation of $5 would be greatly appreciated to fund tree planting.
