Restoring Abundance and Conserving Rarity: Helping Vermont’s Native Plants Thrive

Join us on Saturday, February 22nd for a native plant talk featuring Grace Glynn, Botanist with VT Agency of Natural Resources and Hayley Kolding, Southern Vermont Conservation Manager for Vermont River Conservancy.

Co-hosted by the Black River Action Team and Fletcher Memorial Library.

How are Vermont’s rare plants faring? What about the common ones? Learn about the work of the Vermont Natural Heritage Inventory to map, monitor, and conserve over 600 species of rare and uncommon plant species across the state. Discover how and WHY to responsibly choose native plants for your own pollinator gardens, meadowscaping, and beyond. In-person attendees will receive a small packet of local native wildflower seeds.
