Biodiversity Starts in Your Lawn

Thursday, May 28, 2026 from 7 to 8:30 p.m
Whiteside Taylor Auditorium ― Free

It is possible to maintain a dense and lush lawn using natural products and ecological practices. But is it really necessary to have a golf course at home?

You can achieve a low-maintenance lawn by selecting the right plant species and embracing biodiversity. There are also alternatives such as groundcovers, wildflower meadows, and xeriscaping.

These options benefit both your yard and local pollinators.

SPEAKER: Edith Smeesters, biologist and pioneer in ecological horticulture in Quebec. She has delivered numerous conferences, written several books, and contributed to the development of Quebec’s pesticide management code.
