Is This Plant Good or Bad? Asking Better Questions with Deborah Perkins

  • Ft Williams Park 1000 Shore Road Cape Elizabeth, Maine, 04107 United States (map)

Deborah Perkins, of First Light Wildlife Habitats, is a local ecologist with a passion for co-creating thriving wildlife habitats. In this thought-provoking and practical workshop, we’ll explore questions like: What are ecologically “out-of-place plants”? Which plants cause harm, which ones are beneficial, and which ones are neutral? Why? What plants are recommended to replace harmful, out-of-place plants that build a better food web for wildlife?

How can we heal habitat, restore natural plant communities, and build wildlife habitat and biodiversity – one plant at a time, and without creating a sense of dread, panic, and hostility?

If you’re contending with invasives in the spaces you tend, this workshop is for you!

This event is hosted by Wild Seed Project and Friends of Ft. Williams Park.
