Fall Gardening for Wildlife Walks

Sheryl Swed, DBG Executive Director, announced two “Fall Gardening for Wildlife” Walks led by DBG’s Director of
Horticulture, Stephen Pryce Lea. The walks will be offered to the public on Friday, October 15 and Friday October 22 at 11:00 a.m. Swed said, “Stephen invites you to learn how to care for a range of perennial meadow garden plants in fall, share seed gathering tips, and introduce pesticide free gardening in the Fifth Season.”
Stephen Pryce Lea, DBG Director of Horticulture, said, “We will be taking a leisurely walk in Piet Oudolf’s 2-acre Meadow
Garden. We will learn how we maintain a fall garden retaining essential habitats, providing food and shelter for birds, bees, beneficial insects, and all wildlife during the dormant season.” Spaces for this adult oriented event are limited and reservations are required. For reservations go to www.delawaregardens.org/new-events. For DBG members the walk is free and non-member adults pay admission of $12 plus a $10 tour fee. Reservations are required for members and non-
members. Sorry no walk-ins.

The DBG is located at 30220 Piney Neck Rd., Dagsboro, DE 19939.
The DBG mission is to create a world-class, inspirational, educational, and sustainable public botanic garden in southern Delaware for the benefit and enjoyment of all.
