July “In the Mudd” Master Gardener Lecture – Lights Out For Living Things at Mudd’s Grove

July 8, 2022; 12:30-2:00 PM

Do you know that traditional landscape lighting, while attractive, can have harmful effects on insects, birds, and other wildlife? St. Louis, a major stop along the migratory bird flyway, now ranks as the fifth most light-polluted city in the  U. S.

In this session, learn the simple things you can do in your own yard. Master Gardener Lynnda Greene is a retired freelance writer, editor and green energy storage industry journalist. A community environmental advocate and member of Dark Sky Missouri, she lives in Webster Groves, where she’s a regular walker of its darkened leafy lanes in search of the perfect moonlit nightscape.

This event in INSIDE. Chairs provided.

      Hello Marie, sorry for the late reply. The speaker does a lot of public speaking to increase awareness. You might want to watch or search online for her schedule. We did not record it.
