Plant Workshop at Landis

We're excited to introduce the first in a series of three informative and interesting classes to be presented by Chris Cash, popular recently retired SUNY Cobleskill Plant Science Professor.  

The other classes in the series will be scheduled soon, but now, we invite you to join us for What Is this Plant, and Will It Work for Me? by Zoom on Saturday, February 27, from 10:00 - 11:30 AM with flexibility for Q & A at the end. REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED FOR THIS CLASS; registrations will receive the Zoom link prior to class. Click here to register by PayPal or if you prefer to avoid PayPal, contact us at info@LandisArboretum.org to pay by phone using your credit card.

In this first class, Chris will help you grow your knowledge of plants and what they need in order to thrive in our world. Plants have names and we need to start there. Chris will guide you into the world of plant names, suggested reference books, and online tools to identify and learn about plants. These are tools that casual gardeners and practicing botanists alike are using to identify plants.  Chris will also provide simple look at local 'plant communities' and how you might employ knowledge of plants and ecosystems to making your own garden selections and create a garden that works.

This workshop series will also include Roots and What's Underground (and Why It Matters), and The Importance of Soils to Your Happy Healthy Garden. Information on these sessions will be provided soon.
