SUMMARY:Bay Friendly Landscaping Workshop - on ZOOM
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to redesign your yard for resiliency with low maintenance native landscape plants. \n\n\n\n\n\nLearn to create a landscape that is beautiful and provides valuable ecosystem services in our Bay Friendly Landscaping class. This class will focus on selecting plants that are low maintenance and are adapted to the extreme conditions that we have here in Florida\, including sandy soil\, high winds\, drought\, and flooding. These will help protect Tampa Bay by reducing fertilizers\, pesticides\, and irrigation. Proper plant selection can also help the environment by providing habitat for wildlife and reduce your costs associated with landscape maintenance. This class will be held on Zoom and the first 50 registrants who attend the class will be mailed a hard copy of the “Plant This\, Not That” flip book to the address provided during registration. The Zoom link will be sent the day before the class. \n>>> REGISTER HERE <<< \nPLEASE NOTE: There is no fee to attend this workshop. \nIf you have any questions\, please contact the UF/IFAS Extension Hillsborough County at (813) 744-5519. \n***The University of Florida is committed to providing universal access to all of our events.
