Plant Friends, Plant Teachers: Horticultural Learning and Growth | Wednesday, May 8 | 7 PM In Person: $15 | Livestream: Free | |
| The vast multitude of plants — from native varieties that have gone largely unchanged for millions of years to those that have been radically redeveloped through intensive breeding — can teach us a lot about coexisting. Plants are not only a source of food but they can also be a source of kinship (think gardens and houseplants). So join host Alexis Madrigal for a conversation with horticultural experts and enthusiasts to explore the different ways we can live with and learn from photosynthetic beings. Plus, enjoy a community plant exchange — bring a plant and take one home! | |
