Native Plant Field Trip

At Louise and Mark Merkens’ home, 1 Icarus Loop, Lake Oswego.  

This is a followup from the Peace and Justice January program on native plants that was presented by Jim Kessler from Iowa.  Jim described to us the conversion of farmland to a thriving prairie habitat.  Their garden shows a shady woodland option with native plants that support our food web.  It will be an “open house”. Louise will give people tours, provide a plant list, information about the Backyard Habitat Program and other resources.  Come rain or shine.  

Those who are unable to come at the scheduled time are welcomed to contact Louise for a “private” tour at a time that works for both you and Louise.
