Rethinking Your Lawn

Looking for a beautiful yard that’s easier to maintain and built to thrive in Nebraska’s changing climate?

Join Conservation Nebraska and Rita Brhel, the Horticulture Aide with Nebraska Extension in Adams County, on April 21st from 6:00–7:30 PM in the Abbott Room at the Hastings Museum!

Explore ornamental plants, shrubs, and trees that can withstand drought while supporting pollinators and beneficial wildlife. Learn how incorporating native plants can create a more climate- and pest-resilient landscape that saves time, water, and effort!

This event is free and open to the public. There will be snacks and drinks available.
