Join author and entomologist Doug Tallamy at Temple Ambler Arboretum for a lecture and deep discussion about concrete ways each of us can make a positive environmental impact. Nearly every day Doug receives emails from people who have read his books and heard his talks and yet still have questions about ecological land care. These are good, thoughtful questions about ecology and evolution, biodiversity, invasive species, insect declines, native and non-native plants, conservation and restoration, residential and city landscapes, urban issues, oak biology, keystone plants, Homegrown National Park, monarchs, supporting wildlife at home, and more.

Join us in person as Doug addresses as many of these queries as he can, with hope that his answers will further motivate and inform us all in our desire to restore ecosystem function where we live, work, play, worship, and garden. This program will take place in person at Temple Ambler Arboretum and has been approved to carry 1.5 LA CES and ISA CEUs.

This program will also be available as livestream online via Zoom, and as a recording. Register for online →

This program is co-presented by Morris Arboretum & Gardens and the Temple Ambler Arboretum.
