SUMMARY:Leave the Leaves\, Save the Stems
DESCRIPTION:\n\nFallen leaves\, decaying logs\, and gone-by flowers nurture 
 overwintering birds\, pollinators\, fireflies\, turtles\, and other 
 wildlife. But . . . it's all so messy! How can we manage the practical and 
 aesthetic concerns that arise when we keep autumn materials on home or 
 community grounds?\n\nWe'll discuss the life-giving importance of winter 
 habitat for insects\, birds\, and other wildlife. Kathy shares the story of 
 her own experiments with leaving leaves and saving stems. Learn how careful 
 plant selection\, plant care\, timing\, and good design can harmonize our 
 desire for attractive landscapes with other creatures' needs for winter 
 habitat. \n\nAn informative handout accompanies this one-hour talk. 
 \n\n\n\n \n\nKathy Connolly is a landscape designer who specializes in 
 naturalized designs\, low-impact landscape techniques\, and native plants. 
 In addition to her design projects\, she gives talks\, tours\, and 
 workshops. She has received several awards for her communications efforts 
 on landscapes\, plants\, and land care. Kathy has a master’s degree from 
 the Conway Graduate Program in Sustainable Landscape Planning and Design.
