Landscaping with Native Plants

On Thursday, May 10, Hendersonville Green Drinks welcomes Wes Burlingame, an active volunteer with the Hendersonville Tree Board, Bullington Gardens, the Hendersonville Food Co-Op, Conserving Carolina (formerly CMLC), Cullowhee Native Plant Conference, and his favorite botanical gardens. Burlingame will address how to identify and utilize native plants in your home garden. He believes in the healing power of our plants to repair the damage of thoughtless development. Burlingame propagated and grew native plants for 30 years at Laurel Springs Nursery in Hendersonville until his retirement in 2012. Hendersonville Green Drinks is presented by MountainTrue, Conserving Carolina and Black Bear Coffee Co. Come to Green Drinks to learn more about current environmental issues, have relevant discussions, and meet with like-minded people. This is a monthly event and everyone is welcome.
