ReWilding ~ Planting for Change

When: Wednesday, March 4, 2026
10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.

Where: APCC’s Koppel Center
482 Main St (Rte 6A), Dennis 02638

Join APCC in welcoming Trevor Smith who will speak on the why, what, and how of native planting in your yard’s gardens and lawn. Transitioning to native planting can lead to many benefits, such as less maintenance and costs: Believe it or not, native trees, shrubs, and plants require little or no fertilizer, irrigation, and weeding, once established. Reduced need for mowing your lawn. Less water use: Many native alternatives have deep root systems which improve water efficiency through decreased need for irrigation. They help us conserve limited natural groundwater, especially in times of drought conditions. We will discuss different plant choices for your lawn and/or gardens that could turn your yard into a beautiful and sustainable habitat. Also, it is fascinating to observe your new landscape change and establish. Trevor will discuss why native landscaping is important to our community and environment.
