Midcoast Conservancy offers ‘Rewilding Your Yard’ virtual workshop Event Location: Event has passed Midcoast Conservancy will offer a virtual event, “Rewilding Your Yard: How Doing Can Less Can Bring You More,” on Thursday, March 11, from 6:30 - 8 p.m. Lucy Birkett, ecology enthusiast and ecosystem gardener, will explore how gardens, yards, and landscapes can be enhanced to benefit wildlife and insects, strengthen resiliency, and provide infinite delight and interest to humans. Birkett will show attendees how easy and rewarding it can be to grow native perennials, shrubs, and trees, and will recommend specific strategies and resources – some of which will involve doing a little less. Birkett will draw on her own lessons from “rewilding” her 1/4 acre yard and experiences in restoring ecological health to large and small areas of land. After a brief presentation, she will take questions from participants.
