NPI MEETING WITH NATURE WALK & PLANT PROPAGATION WORKSHOP
The Faubourg Marigny Improvement Association is going all in on native plants! This beautiful historic neighborhood wants to increase biodiversity and green space one block at a time, so NPI has been invited to help residents learn about ethically collecting and propagating native seeds. As always, anyone and everyone (NPI member or not) is welcome to attend the meeting and to share native plants and seeds.
Meet at ST. PAUL LUTHERAN CHURCH, 2624 BURGUNDY STREET, NEW ORLEANS
9:00-10:30 a.m. Urban nature walk with NPI Board Member Helen Sierminski, who’ll introduce us to birds, plants, and people.
10:30 a.m.-noon Plant propagation workshop led by Ellie of New Orleans City Park Pelican Greenhouse: inland sea oats (Chasmanthium latifolium) and blue mistflower (Conoclinium coelestinum) seeds and beautyberry (Callicarpa americana) cuttings.
Bring your own seed tray and or pots, if you can.
