This three-part, in-person workshop series explores the plants shaping our local landscapes—for better and for worse. Led by organic land care expert Michael Nadeau, the series is designed for homeowners and landowners and professional landscapers who want practical, science-based guidance on managing invasive plants and supporting native species. Participants may attend one, two, or all three workshops. Each session stands on its own, while together they offer a deeper understanding of how everyday land care choices can improve habitat, biodiversity, and long-term landscape health.

HEROS IN YOUR BACKYARD: CHOOSING, PLANTING & SUPPORTING NATIVE PLANTS FOR HEALTHIER LANDSCAPES
Saturday, March 28, 2025 | 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM 
Sharon Town Hall,   63 Main Street, Sharon, CT

The final workshop focuses on native plants and how to help them thrive. Michael Nadeau will discuss how to choose what native species to plant, where they are most effective, and how to source them responsibly. The session will also explore the growing use of “nativars,” including their advantages and drawbacks. Participants will leave with practical guidance for creating healthier, more resilient landscapes that support wildlife while still meeting aesthetic and functional goals.
