“Ecological Gardening: Soil, Native Plants and New Ways to Garden”
On August 28th Charlie Nardozzi shared his vast knowledge of native plants and gardening tips that included No Dig Gardening. He led BGC members, their friends and the public on a tour of six gardens at Vermont Garden Park. The Vermont Garden Park is located at 1100 Dorset Street, South Burlington at the Wheeler House. The event was open to the public.
Charlie talks pollinators.
Many gardeners would like to garden more in tune with Nature and still have productive flower and edible gardens. In his talk Charlie discussed how to do that using No-Dig Gardening techniques that build healthy soil, changing gardening practices to protect beneficial insects and pollinators and growing Native plants that will be better for the birds and the environment.
