May 28th @ 7pm In-Person: Lorraine Johnson, “Edible City – Adventures in Urban Food Production and Edible Native Plants”

Join us in welcoming Lorraine Johnson to our stage on May 28th, Lorraine will be speaking to us about “Edible City – Adventures in Urban Food Production and Edible Native Plants”.

Lorraine is a writer, editor and community advocate who, when pressed to describe what unifies her work, has settled on the term cultivation activist.

The author of numerous books on growing native plants, gardening for pollinators, restoring habitat, and producing food in cities, Lorraine’s work focuses on people and communities growing plants, ecological health, and connection to nature and to each other.

Through her books, articles and community projects, she strives to advance the understanding that everything and everyone is connected and that, through our actions, we all have a role to play in making this world a better place for all life.

She’s a little bit earnest, but, she hopes, in a good way.

Lorraine will be speaking to us on edible native plants, with lots of information and tips on how to transform our gardens and approaches to gardening into bountiful, healthy spaces.
