Conservation Gardening Research Introduction
Wednesday, August 7, 4:30 – 5:15 PM
Kennebec Land Trust Office
331 Main St, Winthrop

Visit the KLT office and meet the 2024 summer interns, Elena and Alexa, and learn about the research Elena is doing on conservation gardening and lawn care. Elena created a study plot at the office to learn more about the environmental and economic impacts of different lawn coverings. Coverings include a section that’s moist with low light, a section that is free-growing, a section covered by cardboard to remove the grass, and a section with plants native to Maine. Elena will introduce the project and share what she has learned so far.
