Native Plant School is a year-round series of classes taught by the horticulture staff at Shaw Nature Reserve and covers various aspects of native landscaping. Native Plant School classes are supported by the Missouri Department of Conservation and the St. Louis Wild Ones Chapter.
We can play a role in the efforts to conserve our declining wildlife and resources through the art of ecological gardening. By shifting your perspective and prioritizing the need to coexist with nature, you'll find satisfaction in creating a beautiful space that supports local wildlife, improves air quality, and absorbs and filters rainwater. The goal is to maintain an aesthetically pleasing yard that strikes interests and promotes sustainable living. This class provides an introduction on how to get started in the process of creating your eco-friendly garden. We will discuss how to begin thinking like an ecological gardener and the techniques and design considerations that will help you succeed.
