Wild Ones HGCNY Chapter presents “Creating a Meadow One Step at a Time” with Deanna English, Owner of Grow Wild! Native Plant Nursery
You don’t have to be an expert to create a meadow! Deanna will take you on a journey through her continuing efforts to restore an old farm field to a diverse meadow ecosystem. Along with a description of the how-to’s of this process and the resources she has used, the talk will include the rewards, surprises, challenges, frustrations and utter confusion that she has experienced. This technique can be scaled up or down to meet the landowner’s needs.
About our speaker: Deanna’s life ambition is to support the healing of the natural world. She owns the native plant nursery, Grow Wild!, in Brooktondale, NY, near Ithaca, which is one of the nurseries featured in HGCNY’s native plant shopping guide. Her background is in education and ecological restoration. She has a BA in Middle School Education and a MS in Environmental Studies.
