SUMMARY:Dig into the Health Benefits of Gardening
DESCRIPTION:In addition to providing nutritious fruits and vegetables\, beautiful landscapes\, and fresh flowers\, gardening offers a variety of health benefits. As a part of special programming in recognition of the International Council on Active Aging’s Active Aging Week\, retired nurses and PMG members Kathy Floyd and Beth White will explain how we can reap all of the physical and mental health rewards that gardening can bring us. They will examine the benefits of gardening from a historical perspective while exploring the positive impacts of being outside and caring for a garden–on both our physical well-being and our state of mind. Further\, they will outline strategies for protecting ourselves and avoiding injuries while working in the garden. This presentation will also highlight opportunities for gardening in our community.

SUMMARY:PMG Speakers Bureau: Saving Dark Skies
DESCRIPTION:Light pollution is making nights almost 10 percent brighter every year. The disappearing darkness not only limits our view of the stars but also has serious implications for the health of all living things. Biological processes have evolved with our planet’s rhythm of night and day. Lighting up the night disrupts this predictable cycle. In addition\, excessive outdoor lighting is disorienting and often fatal for migrating birds\, nocturnal flying insects\, and baby sea turtles. \nThe good news is that light pollution is fixable. Join Master Gardener Christine Hirsh-Putnam and Monticello Curator of Plants Peggy Cornett to learn more about the impact of light pollution and the many ways we can mitigate it. \nThis in-person program is hosted by the Piedmont Master Gardeners and The Center at Belvedere and is free and open to all. Register here to attend.

SUMMARY:PMG Speakers Bureau: Growing a Better Lawn
DESCRIPTION:Our lawns offer aesthetic and environmental benefits around our homes while providing a green space where children and pets can play. We can grow our lawns in ways that maintain these benefits while limiting harm to people and the environment. Learn a sustainable approach to lawn management that includes:\n• Using environmentally friendly practices\,\n• Managing weeds and pests while doing no harm to pollinators\, birds\, and other wildlife\, and\n• Replacing some lawn with ground covers and low-maintenance native plant beds.\nThis in-person program is hosted by the Piedmont Master Gardeners and The Center at Belvedere and is free and open to all.\nRegister here.

SUMMARY:PMG Speakers Bureau: How and Why to Grow Hedgerows (Sold Out)
DESCRIPTION:Hedgerows—living fences made of trees and shrubs—support biodiverse populations of birds\, mammals\, and insects. Popularized in the United Kingdom\, this technique for growing a living boundary can be put into practice in Central Virginia. In PMG’s next Speakers Bureau presentation at The Center\, Claire Denton-Spalding of the Piedmont Master Gardeners will cover the history of hedgerows\, their benefits to native plants and animals\, and how best to plant and maintain them in the Piedmont area. Program registration is full.  \nPhoto: Autumn hedgerow\, Gloucestershire\, England\, by David P. Howard.  Wikimedia Commons

SUMMARY:Earthworms: Friend and Foe
DESCRIPTION:Most gardeners view the presence of earthworms in their soil as a huge positive\, but Dr. Linda K. Blum\, a soil scientist in the University of Virginia’s Environmental Sciences Department and a Piedmont Master Gardener\, will explain that earthworm activity isn’t all beneficial. For example\, earthworms can increase greenhouse gas emissions from soils\, disrupt nutrient cycling within the soil\, and promote the movement of nutrient pollution from agricultural fields to adjacent waterbodies. \nThe notion that earthworms are good for the soil goes back to the 19th century and the research of Charles Darwin. He studied earthworms for nearly 40 years in his home garden and estimated that they can move up to 10 tons of soil per acre per year. \nDr. Blum’s talk will include many other surprising facts about the biology\, geographic distribution and ecosystem impacts of native and invasive earthworms. (For instance\, the largest specimen ever found was 22 feet long.) It will also provide information on how to identify and control the spread of the most recent invader\, Amynthas agrestis\, the Asian jumping worm. \nRegister here for this free program.

SUMMARY:Pollinator Gardening with Three Flowerpots
DESCRIPTION:Growing native plants is one of the best ways to promote biodiversity and create healthy habitat for wildlife\, including pollinators like the monarch butterfly\, now in migration. Even if you live in an apartment or townhome that lacks a garden space\, you can still support pollinators by growing native plants on a patio or balcony. At 6:30 p.m. Tuesday\, October 3\, join us at The Center at Belvedere to learn how you can create a native plant garden with as few as three flowerpots that will attract bees\, butterflies\, hummingbirds\, and other vital pollinators. Register here for this free program\, which is open to all. The Center at Belvedere is at 540 Belvedere Boulevard in Charlottesville.
