Creating Habitat by Planting the Woodland Edge

April 4 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
$29

The woodland edge is crucial for protecting forests and providing habitat to wildlife. With increased fragmentation due to development, these habitat islands are now a common feature of suburbia. Discover what plants stabilize the woodland edge and maximize value to wildlife, and how we can use our own backyards to resemble this important habitat.

This program takes place in-person at Mt. Cuba Center Saturday, April 4, 2026.
