EcoLOGICAL Gardening Symposium at the UT Gardens, Knoxville | University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture
The University of Tennessee Gardens, Knoxville, is preparing for the second annual EcoLOGICAL Gardening Symposium to be held March 4, 2023. The event provides inspiration and skill building for home gardeners and landscapers. A silent auction along with five presentations from field experts as well as a door prizes, plant giveaways and a delicious locally prepared lunch will make the event one that no gardener will want to miss.
Topics include garden design by Julieta Sherk, PLA, ASLA, working with water in your landscape by Andrea Ludwig, underutilized native herbaceous perennials by John Manion, the secret role of insects in the garden by Danae Wolfe, and urban tree care by Sharon Jean-Philippe.
An attendee at last year’s symposium said they were “focused every moment. Absolutely awesome.” The event is dedicated to (eco)logical approaches to gardening and home landscaping where attendees learn from experts and network with others who are passionate about making their home landscape inviting for creatures of all shapes and sizes.
Pre-registration is required and can be found by visiting utgardens.tennessee.edu. Registration includes a light breakfast and catered lunch. You must register by Sunday, February 26, at 11:59 p.m.
