Kaufman County Master Gardeners meet on the first Monday for the month, except when that is a Monday holiday; it moves to the second Monday for those months.
We meet at 10 a.m. at First Community Church, 1401 Trinity Drive in Crandall. The educational topic will be presented first, followed by a short break and the business meeting. Guests are welcome. Registration is not necessary. Refreshments will be provided.
Educational Topic: Nature’s Best Hope
Dr. Doug Tallamy, author of Bringing Nature Home and Nature’s Best Hope, talks about the challenges facing our ecosystems and how each of us can make a difference in our own yards. This video discusses food webs and their importance, how to improve the ecosystem in your yard through the use of keystone plants, and why it matters. He also touches on the Homegrown National Park movement that he helped found.
