Learn practical ways to bring natural darkness back to your property while still maintaining safe\, effective outdoor lighting that illuminates your space — not the sky above. \nPerfect for homeowners\, nature lovers\, gardeners\, and anyone interested in protecting our night skies.

SUMMARY:It's All In The Family
DESCRIPTION:A Presentation on the Diversity and Relatedness of Flowering Plants.\n\n\nWe gardners are excited about and make plans to increase the diversity of plants in our gardens and landscapes. A whole new level of appreciation arises when we learn to recognize that many of the plants we grow and see growing in the wild are related to each other\, as in a family.  For example\, alyssum\, broccoli\, and radishes all belong to the mustard family. Carrots\, dill\, and poison hemlock are related in the carrot family. The goal of this presentation is to appreciate another aspect of the diversity of flowering plants by seeing how related plants are grouped together into families.  \nPresentation by Dr Gary Emberger  a Plant Pathologist.
