Program: Come see why CA native plants are all the rage! We'll discuss what a native plant is, why they’re the cornerstone of a sustainable, Earth-friendly Garden, and the many benefits these gorgeous plants offer the gardener as well as the broader environment. Participants learn which natives to grow and how to care for them.

Speaker: Marie Narlock has been a UC Marin Master Gardener since 2004. She studied landscape design through the UC Berkeley Extension and Merritt College and completed sustainable landscape classes at Sonoma State University. She writes articles for the Marin IJ and is co-founder and co-editor of the Leaflet, the Marin Master Gardener e-newsletter. Marie has participated in many MMG projects over the years, including the Marin County Fair demonstration gardens. Marie advocates using native plants in the garden both for their beauty and to help maintain Marin's biodiversity.
