Why You Should Make Space for Native Plants in Your Garden

Published 2 years, 7 months ago
Description

Environmental researchers say that gardens full of native plants can help combat climate change by supporting pollinators and protecting wildlife, while conserving natural resources like water and green space. Today on City Cast Portland we’re talking with Peter Condra, a certified Oregon master naturalist who works for the Columbia Land Trust. He’s here to help us use garden spaces more effectively and teach us what planting natively actually means.
