Naturally Balanced Landscapes

Join Friends of the Long Pond Greenbelt. Suzanne Ruggles, a naturalist and native gardener based out of Westhampton, NY, also known as “The Barefoot Gardener" will provide an illustrated talk on naturally balanced landscapes and pond buffers using native plants.  On a mission to dissuade people from using pesticides, insecticides, and other unnatural additives to their lawns and gardens, Suzanne instead focuses her clients and students on the different ways to co-create with nature, creating stunning and naturally balanced landscapes by first honoring the native plants that already exist on their properties, and if and where necessary - to re-vegetate using native plants.  Refreshments to follow!  Meet at the Long Pond Greenbelt Nature Center, 1061 Bridgehampton/Sag Harbor Turnpike (directly following the Monthly Meeting).  For more information contact 631-745-0689.
