SUMMARY:Beautification in Bay Shore: Talking Native Plants
DESCRIPTION:Bay Shore Beautification \nhas invited The Long Island Conservancy to speak before them at The Bayshore – Brightwaters Library 7 PM Wednesday the 20th to discuss the ways in which they can bring green practices and native greenery to the community.   We will discuss  plants — native\, non-native and invasive.   What belongs in your yard\, and what is trouble?   Do you want to plant a  native meadow\, create a bioswale?   How do you create  habitat for local wildlife? \nHow does Bay Shore Beautification “bring Nature home?” \n\n \n\nLeading the discussion will be Marshall Brown.   A long time advocate for Long Island’s environment\, starting with Save The Great South Bay\, and since 2022 with The Long Island Conservancy.\n\nThe goal of the Long Island Conservancy is to support local stewards\, and so we are delighted to be speaking before this venerable organization.  We very much look forward to assisting in Bay Shore / Brightwater’s beautification. \nThe LIC works with municipalities\, land trusts\, and homeowners to clear invasive plants and plant native\, to help rebuild\, community by community\, Long Island’s native habitats.  Let’s turn sumps into bird sanctuaries.  Let’s clear our woods and yards of English Ivy\, and save a million trees! \n  \nMarshall will be joined by Suzanne Ruggles\, aka The Barefoot Gardener. \n \n\nFor twenty years now\, Suzanne has been preaching the virtues of native plantings.   Her ‘enchanted acre’ in West Hampton\, bordering The Pine Barrens\, is alive with local nature\, and serves as an inspiration to all those that visit. \n\n \nTo learn more about the importance of planting native\, we’ve made a little film (Little Green Shoot) on the topic: \n \n\nYou can also learn about “The Dirty Dozen” Campaign\, which lists out Long Island’s worst invasive plants. ones we are sure can be found in most yards. The Long Island Conservancy seeks to educate the public on invasive species generally\, and there is no better place to start than The NYSDEC’s Emmy Award Winning Film for 2023\, Uninvited.\n \n \n\nWhether or not you can attend the talk on Wednesday\, understand that we are really invested in creating an ongoing public discussion about what is happening in each of our communities\, and what we can do about it.  Long Island has such natural beauty.  It is really up to us to protect\, preserve and restore it where we can for future generations\, and in honor of those who came before us here. \n\n\n\n[contact-form][contact-field label=”Name” type=”name”  required=”true” /][contact-field label=”Email” type=”email” required=”true” /][contact-field label=”Website” type=”url” /][contact-field label=”Message” type=”textarea” /][/contact-form]
