SUMMARY:Is Nature More Cooperative Than We Think? A Talk with Kristin Ohlson
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, August 15 | 6:00PM-7:00PM | Nature Center \nJoin us for a very special author talk from writer Kristin Ohlson! Books available for purchase from Mac’s Backs-Books on Coventry.\nMost people believe that nature is characterized by competition and conflict—red in tooth and  claw\, as the poet Tennyson said. But recent science suggests that cooperative relationships among living things have both shaped the world around us and continue to knit ecosystems together. How can we both uphold these cooperative relationships and become a cooperative partner with the rest of life? \nRegistration Link: https://givebutter.com/87QPaA

SUMMARY:Container Gardening Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Fall Container Gardening Workshop with Meadow City Nursery\nTuesday\, September 10th\, 7:00 PM – 8:30 PM EDT \nNo yard\, no problem!\nMany native plants thrive in outdoor planters\, where they can still provide food for birds and pollinators. In this hands-on workshop\, we will put together a container garden with three native plants\, which can live on a porch\, a balcony\, or in your yard. \nIncluded in the cost of the program are:\nYour choice of planter/bring your own planter (see below)\nGrowing media to fill planter\nYour choice of 3 native plants (in 4″ pots)\nGuidance/materials on plant selection and maintenance\n\n\nChoose your planter (photos below): Wooden whiskey barrel planter\, black fabric planter (can stand alone or be placed inside a larger decorative planter)\, or bring your own. If you bring your own planter\, we recommend one with a minimum diameter of 15″ and with drainage holes.\n\nIf you are planning to use a ceramic pot\, choose a high-quality glazed pot with a wide opening and tapered base. This gives water space to expand when frozen and reduces the risk of your pot cracking over the winter. Terra cotta pots are particularly susceptible to cracking.\n\nREGISTER: https://givebutter.com/Ve5XD2\n\n\n$45-$65 per person\, depending on planter chosen. Registration required.  \nThank you to our partner Meadow City Nursery!
