Event Details

Presented by: Thomas Christopher

Lawns have long been regarded as eco-villains, but a new generation of grasses and maintenance practices can produce a green lawn that is a contributor to biological diversity, resource sustainability, and carbon sequestration. These new lawns can contribute novel elements of beauty to the home landscape and require less mowing and fertilization. Over the past decade, horticulturist Tom Christopher has been working to return the American lawn to a more environmentally healthy condition. Join him for a tour of these new alternatives – this grass is greener.
