SUMMARY:Naturescape Your Yard with Karen Bussolini (Zoom & In-Person)
DESCRIPTION:Wilton Library is excited to present gardener extraordinaire Karen Bussolini in the live Zoom program\, “Naturescape Your Yard\,” on Thursday\, May 30\, at 6:30 p.m. This is a hybrid program: watch with others in the Rimer Room\, or remotely on Zoom. \nNaturescaping is landscaping with nature — attracting and sustaining wildlife\, using native and and well-adapted plants\, using resources wisely\, and avoiding environmental pollution. But it also means landscaping like nature. Nobody plants\, waters or fertilizes the forest or the prairie\, yet they survive\, beautifully\, on their own. Naturescaping\, or ecological landscaping\, creates self-sustaining landscapes that function like nature. \nBussolini will show how to create environment-friendly landscapes that work with nature to reduce maintenance and costs while increasing beauty and enjoyment. She will show inspiring examples of gardens from across the country that conserve resources — time and money as well as natural resources. They also foster diversity\, sustain wildlife\, provide food and incorporate environmentally sound practices to create sustainable yards. \n“Naturescape Your Yard” is informed by the work of notable ecologists and ecological designers. It also stems from a deep understanding that everything comes from and goes somewhere. It is all connected. The presentation includes big-picture ecological thinking as well as nitty-gritty how-to tips. Additionally\, the images of sustainable yards and gardens presented serve the needs of the people who use them\, look attractive\, and function as small ecosystems. \nBussolini has been a gardener all her life. She trained as a painter and was an architectural photographer earlier on. Her specialization is now in garden photography\, writing\, speaking and eco-friendly garden coaching/design. She is additionally a Northeast Organic Farmers Association (NOFA) accredited Organic Land Care Professional. Among others\, Anne Raver’s feature\, “A Connecticut Hillside of Feisty Beauties” in The New York Times spotlights Bussolini’s garden. \nRegistration for this program is required. Please register online at www.wiltonlibrary.org\, or call (203) 762-6334.
