Learn how to use native plants around your home to beautify your property, provide habitat for butterflies, birds and bees, and gain benefits such as improved storm water drainage and healthy soil. This presentation by members of the Wildflower Preservation and Propagation Committee will show examples from their “Native Garden in Your Yard” program, which provides inspiration, encouragement, and help to homeowners who wish to transform their traditional lawn and garden spaces into havens for native wildflowers and other plants. We will also touch on using native plants on a larger scale, such as restoration projects on McHenry County Conservation District sites.Applications will be available for mentor match-ups.
