A three-part series, come for one or come for all!

Wild spaces are disappearing. That is a fact. Land conversion, development, large scale agri-business, all are encroaching on our precious wild spaces that support a myriad of life that at the end of the day, supports our lives. Join us to learn some simple things you can do in your own backyard to change the paradigm of mowed lawns, one small corner at a time.

Part 1: Making a plan – October 18, 2025
Part 2: Winter sowing – December 6, 2025
Part 3: Getting ready for spring – April 11, 2026

This course is led by Lynette Anderson.

Lynette is involved with both programming and land management at Belwin Conservancy. She enjoys creating walks and talks that showcase the great work being done to restore native habitat for all the critters and plants. She also gets to be involved with the work that creates the habitat, which she loves. Each day holds something different for her. Some days she is working with her body on the land, some days she does reconnaissance for a program, some days she works with volunteers, and some days, nights or evenings she gets to lead a group to some amazing phenological event happening on Belwin property.

Activity Rating: 2~ Walking short distances, some standing.
