SUMMARY:Florida-Friendly Landscaping: Fertilize Appropriately
DESCRIPTION:FFL Principle Number 3\, “Fertilize Appropriately\,” provides guidance on how to best give your landscape plants the nutrients they need.\n\n\n\nThis is the fourth in a series of Florida-Friendly Landscaping webinars for residents of Pasco County! (Please register for each individual webinar presentation of the series\, as the corresponding Zoom link will be sent out via email two days prior to the event. The Zoom link will only apply to the individual presentation.) \nPlants have varying nutrient needs\, depending on the species\, the age of the plant\, and its location. It’s not always necessary to fertilize your plants or lawns\, and too much fertilizer can weaken a plant\, promote disease\, and invite pests\, in addition to wasting money and harming the environment. Before you fertilize\, you should always determine if it’s really needed\, and if there are any local restrictions. If you do fertilize\, always follow the fertilizer label directions and UF/IFAS recommended rates and application timings to prevent nutrient runoff and leaching which can pollute Florida’s waters. \nBenefits of Fertilizing Appropriately: \n\nGround and surface waters are protected from pollution\nPlant material has the correct color and appearance\nPlants flower and fruit appropriately\nFertilizing only when necessary (not overfertilizing) saves money\, reduces pest problems\, and promotes healthy plant growth\nYou may be more satisfied with the performance of the landscape plants and turfgrass\n\nWhat you do in your landscape matters. From the fertilizers you apply to the water you use\, your gardening choices can have an impact on land\, water\, wildlife\, and the overall well-being of Florida’s residents. \n\n\n>>> RESERVE A SPOT <<< \nThe Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ (FFL) Program is here to help you learn how to have healthy and beautiful landscapes that protect Florida’s natural resources by following nine science-based principles: \n\nRight Plant\, Right Place\nWater Efficiently\nFertilize Appropriately\nMulch\nAttract Wildlife\nManage Yard Pests Responsibly\nRecycle Yard Waste\nReduce Stormwater Runoff\nProtect the Waterfront\n\nA Florida-Friendly landscape can be designed to look the way you want\, fit the aesthetics of your community\, and suit your lifestyle\, while being environmentally sustainable. Join us to learn how! \nAfter registering for this webinar presentation\, you will be emailed the Zoom link 2 days prior to the event. \nThis lecture is presented by Kate Kaste\, UF/IFAS Extension Pasco County\, FFL Program Manager. \n  \n>>> RESERVE A SPOT <<< \n

SUMMARY:Women of Pinellas: Shaping Bird Protection in the Early 20th Century
DESCRIPTION:Learn about the pioneer women of Pinellas and how they influenced legislation to protect birds during the early 20th century\n\n\n\nJoin Quinton Spiaggi\, volunteer research associate at the Palm Harbor Museum\, in this informative presentation about the pioneer women of Pinellas and how they influenced legislation to protect birds during the early 20th century. Women like Katherine B. Tippetts\, Elizabeth Skinner Jackson\, Dr. Grace Whitford\, Myrtle Scharrer Betz\, and Lucy Platt Hayes were instrumental in social change during this time period\, and we even owe the concept of state birds\, like Florida’s northern mockingbird\, to their efforts. Considered leaders across Pinellas County and the state of Florida during their lifetime\, much of their work has been forgotten until recently. \nThis program is free and is aimed at all ages\, and will feature items from the Palm Harbor Museum’s collection. \n>>> RESERVE A SPOT <<<

SUMMARY:Create Clearwater Green Mixer
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this group is to offer a space for those who want to create all the things about city living that we would most love to live with. That would include access to fresh\, healthy food\, clean water\, clean air\, educational opportunities\, lots of art\, music\, dance and theatre\, parks and nature\, community gathering places\, community gardens\, decent mass transit\, and healthy neighborhoods. What is your vision of what Clearwater could be? \nWe currently have “Green Mixers” every third Tuesday at Moccasin Lake Nature Park at 6 PM.  Every month\, we meet more great people at these. \nA few of us are working on some projects to revitalize the downtown area. We have some great ideas in the works\, and are looking for more people to play with. What would you like to see happen downtown? \nWe are interested in getting community gardens going and there is some great news on that front too. We’ll keep you updated here. \nWe want to know what is important to you and what you would like to see happen in this city\, so please\, let us know!
