Author Lecture: "Greenwashed", September 11th, Katonah

Lecture: "Greenwashed" with Author Kendra Pierre-Louis at the Katonah Village Library

Every day, millions of Americans dutifully replace conventional produce with organic and replace their bottled water with water bottles. Although this green consumer movement certainly has many Americans consuming differently, it raises an important and rarely asked question—is this consumption really any better for the planet?

No registration required and the event is free; Doors open at 7pm for refreshments, the lecture begins at 7:30pm.  For more information visit bedfordaudubon.org

Lecture: Woodland Wildflower Restoration, Wednesday, March 13th, Katonah

Lecture: Woodland Wildflower Restoration with Jessica Arcate Schuler

Join the Bedford Audubon Society for the first in a free three-part series on Westchester Wildflower Conservation, co-sponsored by Bedford Audubon, Mianus River Gorge, Pound Ridge Land Conservancy, & Westchester Land Trust.

Jessica A. Schuler, Director of the Thain Family Forest at The New York Botanical Garden, will describe how NYBG is using historical collections and modern field surveys to identify and restore extirpated, or locally extinct, native flora in the 50-acre old-growth urban forest. While the exact causes of extirpation are unknown, overcollecting, soil compaction, pollution, invasive species, and climate change are suspected culprits in the disappearance of many native species, including wildflowers.

Wednesday, March 13th   

Refreshments served at 7pm, lecture begins at 7:30pm 

Katonah Village Library, 26 Bedford Road, Katonah

All events are free, but please pre-register with Evelyn@westchesterlandtrust.org or call 914.234.6992 ext. 24.  For more information visit: www.WestchesterLandTrust.org/wildflowers
