We’ve finished our program planning for 2025!! This year’s theme is “Humane Gardening: Cultivating Habitats for Wildlife”.
We will be highlighting what each one of us can do ourselves and share with our families, friends, and neighbors on how to garden mindfully to create viable habitats for insects, birds and other wildlife. Our role as gardeners includes spreading the word on the great impact we each can make by implementing such simple concepts as not using pesticides, or providing a water source for wildlife in our yards. To communicate clearly and to teach the facts of humane gardening, we must learn the specifics. The brush pile left as an insect habitat may be tolerated more readily by our neighbors if they know its purpose. They may turn off their exterior house lights if they know how migrating birds are confused by the lights. We are delegates of nature and can help prevent and resolve conflicts between humans and wildlife by using alternative methods and by teaching these methods to others.
Hopefully we have scheduled programs and projects in 2025 that will interest our members and those of you who might want to join. If gardening, and all that goes along with it, appeals to you, explore these web pages and join us. If you’re interested in joining, you can find our Membership Brochure and Application here. All are always welcome! We meet at the Brecksville Human Services Center, Gathering Room, 2 Community Drive, Brecksville.
