Saturday, March 25, 9:00 am – 3:00 pm – Flower to Fork: Native Plants, Farms, and Food


Join the New England Wild Flower Society at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley on Saturday, March 25 for a symposium  entitled Flower to Fork: Native Plants, Farms, and Food.  What role do native plants and their pollinators play in the stability of our food and other agricultural systems?  The symposium, taking place from 9 – 3, will discuss the interactions between native plants, pollinators, and food crops.  Learn how farmers are using native plants to increase their crop production, what programs are available to growers to help with native plant installation, and how you can create beautiful gardens that also support pollinators.  To learn more and register, visit  http://newenglandwild.org.  $75 for NEWFS members, $85 for nonmembers.  Image from www.vinnakatz.com.
