February Meet Your Greens will be on Thursday, February 20 at Perk on Main, Middletown. Join us for drinks, food, and conversation 5:30 to 7:30 pm. Guest speaker Aubree Keurajian will be talking about ungardening – going beyond planting native plants to live in deeper harmony with nature.

Her talk will discuss nuances around the definitions of “native”, “invasive”, and “weed”, as well as why gardening for nature means more than just switching plants. We’ll discuss some of the darker origins of our garden-industrial complex, and how community-based ecological change can be incredibly effective! RSVP to the Facebook event here.

Admission is free. Guests pay for their own food and drink. Please join us!
