Climate Change and Gardening

Join Master Gardener Irene Eckstrand for a talk on climate change and gardening.

Come learn about how gardeners are part of the solution to climate change. This presentation covers the science of climate change and offers practical advice on how to make your own garden more climate-friendly.

In addition to being a member of the MG Speakers Bureau, Irene served as the editor of the MG newsletter, The Seed, for four years and still writes a column on science news. On Tuesday mornings, you can find her working with the Montgomery County Fairgrounds Demonstration Garden team.  She shares her home with her husband, a daughter, two cats, and two dogs.
