SUMMARY:How to Incorporate Native Plants into Your Garden with Colorblock Garden Design Cards presented by Elizabeth Dudley
DESCRIPTION:Join Elizabeth Dudley for this fun indoor and outdoor program at Burley Farms. Elizabeth is a local Landscape Architect who has practiced with native plants for many years.  In addition\, her work as an artist has helped her to design gardens with color in mind\, and she wants to help you see color in a utilitarian way for your own gardens with the Colorblock Garden Design Cards. \nDesign your Natural Home Garden on your tabletop! \nThe Native Perennials and Native Shrubs design cards will help you get started incorporating native plants into your existing home garden or for use in a naturalized landscape. The praises of native plants have lately been sung for good reason: better for native pollinators\, easier to grow since they are less particular about soils and water typically\, and for their natural longevity.  The selected plants include woody plants as well as forbs. These plants bring natural grace and beauty for a more natural look to your home\, especially as your garden may segue from a cultivated area or lawn to the wilding edge of a property.  These plants are curated for their ease of availability as well as hardiness. All plant selections are field tested and curated by Elizabeth\, Landscape Architect\, to be a reliable performer. \nThis program will include two parts – \n\nPart 1 will take place inside the Mathey Center at Burley Farms where we will learn to arrange and shuffle these cards to get you started with these cards as informative design tools.\nPart 2 will take place in the gardens at Burley Farms where we will find samples of these plants and will have a general Q and A session for questions about your own home gardens.\n\nThe program cost is $50 and includes both Colorblock Garden Design Card Sets (Native Perennials and Natives Shrubs: Zones 2-9 & New England Perennials: Zone 3-8)\, a $72.50 value. Three cards of each plant are given to facilitate complete garden planning. All proceeds will be donated to SELT. \nLimited to 15 participants. \nMore about Elizabeth can be found on website – https://www.elizabethdudleyartanddesign.com/ \n\nRegistration Required: CLICK HERE

SUMMARY:SELTie Book Club - September 2026
DESCRIPTION:The SELTie Book Club continues! The book selection this time around will be Grandma Joy and Me by Brad Ryan and the discussion will be led by SELT’s Events & Outreach Specialist Derrick Trent. Light refreshments will be provided\, but you are also welcome to bring your dinner. \nA heartrending\, transformative true story following Brad Ryan and his grandmother Joy Ryan as they embark on a seven-year journey to visit every US National Park. \nRaised in Appalachia\, Grandma Joy lived a life shaped by constraints and hardships\, while Brad grappled with the weight of family rifts and unresolved pain. Together\, they embarked on a quest not only to witness the majesty of America’s wild landscapes but also to heal generations of struggles and misunderstandings. Over seven years\, they sought to visit all sixty-three US National Parks. From the towering peaks of Denali to the otherworldly beauty of the Everglades\, each park became a classroom\, teaching them profound lessons about nature\, resilience\, and each other. \nGrandma Joy and Me follows a seven-year adventure of intergenerational healing\, wherein a grandmother and grandson find themselves released from the injustices—real and imagined—that had long held them hostage. An emotionally charged exploration of love\, forgiveness\, and resilience\, this unique bond between a young man and his ninety-three-year-old grandmother—the oldest person to visit every US National Park—is more than just any travel tale; it is a testament to what makes us deeply human. \n\nRegistration Required: CLICK HERE\nMore about Grandma Joy and Me can be found at https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Grandma-Joy-and-Me/Brad-Ryan/9781668099261
