Also, in October we collect donations for Interfaith Social Services. The club will be collecting both food and non-food items (including diapers, hygiene products and personal care items). ISS is also collecting Halloween costumes for October 30th.

Our new Lunch and Learn webinar series brings together Native Plant Trust’s Director of Conservation, Lea Johnson, and Director of Horticulture, Uli Lorimer, for lively conversations about timely issues within the native plant world. This series highlights Native Plant Trust’s unique contributions to conversations about plants by juxtaposing the perspectives of conservation and horticulture, and demonstrating both the overlaps and differences between these fields. Whether you are a seasoned student of plants or just beginning to learn, we hope you will join us.

Thursday October 1, 2026, 12–1 PM: Why Ecoregions Matter—Uli and Lea discuss learning more about your own ecoregion. Defined by Omekirk and the U.S. EPA as “areas where the type, quality, and quantity of environmental resources are generally similar. [with resources including] geology, landforms, soils, vegetation, climate, land use, wildlife, and hydrology”, ecoregions can inform how you engage with the place(s) where you live, including gardening, stewardship, advocacy, and more.

Thursday November 5, 2026, 12–1 PM: What’s in a Name?—Join Lea and Uli for a lively conversation about the history and complexities of plant naming. Learn more about how Latin and common names came to be, how they are used by botanists and gardeners alike, and why they matter.

A recording of these classes will be available for 30 days after the program dates.
