Really good presentation, glad to see the Wild Ones embracing the thought of planting their natives and eating them, too. Brenna is very knowledgeable, relatable, and obviously a good steward. Solomon Doe's work on Native Plant Agriculture is excellent, too. We have a local permaculture group called Van-Kal Permaculture that has been around since 2011 or so if locals want to connect.

I also totally love this. I always try to tell my clients, more plants to avoid weeds, but they always think I am planting too much . . .

This was one of the most insightful and practical native planting presentations I've seen. I was on the verge of making many of these mistakes. Even the professionals who are not deeply educated about natives had me going in the wrong direction. Where can I get a good native plant design that bears all of this in mind?

Thank you for this important information

Very good plant list helped out a lot

46:57 with a ‘false spring’ right behind us, and the start of a lethal below freezing-forecasted week, I hold an inner vigil for our Insect friends. 🕯️

Thank you for the information!

Great list! Thank you

Buying that book. It's literally what I've been looking for since I got into this a few years ago

Definitely great point about making it look good for the neighbors. also entices the neighbors to start their own little garden patch, and i always give plants to the neighbors, they always say yes to free plants

Fantastic, thank you!!!🙂🙂🙂

This guys legit

I agree with others that this was one of the best presentations on do's and don'ts for establishing and maintaining a native plant yard. Thank you so much! I'm going to keep the link for this video to come back to time and time again

Excellent seminar, I wrote down many notes! Too bad you were rushed at the end. FYI at 55:03 you have a layout overview an I noticed you have Foxglove in the yard. Digitalis/Foxglove is not native to the US.

21:11 Well said!

Democrats gave billions to war not the environment. Wake up they dont care!

Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

I signed up as a new member in 2023 and never got the book. I reached out but still it was not sent. Very disappointed in case I could have learned something. I live in Indiana and figured you'd mail it for the $50 donation. I had never heard of Wild Ones and didn't know you only wanted local members. Anyway, thanks for all you do for Earth and its (biological) inhabitants. Including me: I enjoy your videos and learn from them.

One of the most practical suggestions to ensure success with Native Plants. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences!

Very nice presentation: the explanations, nuances of neighborhoods and HOAs, and the illustrations or graphs!

Amazing about the viburnum's attracting mites and ants on purpose to help defenses!

OK, I am going to address the elephant in the room: I knew Harrison Ford was into flying but I did not know he also was into native plant gardening. I wish you had not dubbed the voice, though.

Check out both - Doug Tallamy and Philip Wollen. According to the UN Report on Global Warming, the livestock industry uses more energy (petro chemicals) than all the transportation put together. We are doomed, yes, because we killed off the insects by removing native plants and with insecticides, and with our other bad habits also. To save species, including humans, we need to realize one can live great on a vegan diet - better - and stop killing the planet with livestock production. IT STARTS WITH EACH OF US - that is the only way it can. Govt is in bed with industries that kill. I am doing all I can to stop invasive plants, plant natives, and eat no animal products. I also try to be a conscientious consumer plus respectfully share these facts I have learned. This chapter has great video, thanks - lots of excellent information.

The good stuff starts at 24:30.

Great presentation. Thank you very much.

Bill Schneider is an inspirational guy.

Excellent! I wish you had been given 2 hours to speak!

I'm on the other side of the country but this was a super helpful presentation as I think about designing one of my side yards as a native habitat.

Love her passion and knowledge to see her talk about the bee buzzing at a frequency well done loved her presentation and visuals

Oh man I feel your pain with tilling. Dealing with the same issue.

I signed up for the HNP program. I'm being overrun with invasive bamboo and privet, and could use any help I could get because there's only one of me and many of them! With 15 acres already in a "natural" state, I'm sure those acres could use some help with introducing understory trees, sedges, and the like. The front 5 acres are where I'm losing the fight and there are zero resources in my area.

Power lines clearings in northville provides wonderful environment for native wildflowers. Joe pie weed was everywhere. The trail is off of Hagerty road called 7mile Park trailhead. Lots of cool native plants.

Good presentation. Your plants are probably just getting a lot of nitrogen and growing vigorously because of the catalpa tree being a Legume. The mulch would probably be like a 1/1/1 fert and slow. Mulch holds moisture and the microbes probably thrived and helped nitrogen fixation of your catalpa. Just a guess.

Corrupt democrats don't care about the environment!!! Please wake up people!

600 billion to Ukraine 🇺🇦 would literally slove all environmental problems in America. About time people wake up to government corruption.

Buckeyes!!

Ideally we want to plant for both today and 50 years from today. I'am reluctant to believe that ALL native species will be able to thrive in our region 50 years from now. I would cite sugar maple as an example. Obviously, we still have more to learn about species selection, and of course promoting biodiversity is paramount.

My groundcover (NC) is uva ursi (bearberries) in my permaculture yard. I can use it for tea that is good for my kidneys. Great presentation - Thanks.

Thanks for these videos.🙂🙂🙂

Great video! I live in Grand Haven and to be honest, I find the actions by local government about trees to be disappointing (somewhat like the keystone cops). Fortunately we have some incredible volunteers, like Adopt A Hemlock, who are working to protect Duncan's Woods. Otherwise, our situation would be a total disaster waiting to happen. Just sayin.

Love your videos.❤️❤️🙂🙂🙂

Very helpful as I’m in the prepping my area this week. Thank you.

Oops, just started a major yard renovation and already made all the mistakes! Good info, wish I had come across this earlier...

So happy to come across this video, thank you Kim! Very informative, as always. I was a Volunteer with the MN TNC back in the 90s.

Hand swiping herbicide! Brilliant.

Thank you for an informative video. Although the speaker sometimes spoke over my head, and in his delivery seemed to nod off now and then from boredom, I actually learned quite a bit.

Star of Bethlehem is the Devil !

Promo sm 😞

This was the best native plant presentation I've listened to. Since I'm still in the planning stages, this has definitely changed my selection of plants. Thank you.
