Dealing with Climate Change in Your Landscape

Thursday, October 15 from 7:00 – 8:30 pm

Presented by Kim Eierman, Founder of EcoBeneficial!

Climate change is here and it is impacting our landscapes – increased flooding, more frequent droughts, more extreme weather events and increasing temperatures. Want to help fight climate change at home? Learn how the plants you choose and the landscape practices you use can help reduce the impacts of climate change and improve the environment around you.

Kim is an environmental horticulturist, specializing in ecological landscapes and native plants. She inspires audiences to make simple changes in their landscapes that make huge environmental improvements. Kim is an active speaker nationwide on many ecological topics – as she tells her audiences, “every landscape matters!” She is the Founder of EcoBeneficial!, a horticulture communications and consulting company that is built on the idea that it is time to think and act differently in our landscapes. Simple changes in landscaping practices can make major environmental improvements – no matter the size of the landscape. Learn more at ecobeneficial.com.

This lecture will be held virtually. A link and viewing instructions will be emailed after your registration is complete.

Support our programs! For the remainder of 2020 our lectures will be free, but as you register, please consider making an optional donation to help us expenses such as speaker fees, technology upgrades, or staff time to facilitate programs. Every donation helps us offer great programs to our community!

Why free? This has been a challenging year and offering flexible pricing for programs is one way Jenkins can support the health and wellbeing of our community. We know that our programs can offer inspiration and rejuvenation, and don’t want cost to be a barrier to accessing great information on gardening and horticulture.
