280: Nancy Lawson on Humane Gardening
Using native plants to creatively interact with wildlife and avoid landscaping conflicts.
In This Podcast: If you are a person who really cares about all wildlife and creatures great and small then it probably bothers you a lot if an animal is killed through human carelessness. This is the podcast for you. Nancy Lawson writes about smart gardening choices that can reduce the problems of invasive animals and insects, thereby reducing the need to cull or harm bothersome animals. Even if you are not particularly protective of animals, she has ideas that can help reduce problematic visits and save your garden plants and veggies.
Nancy is a columnist for All Animals magazine, as well as the founder of Humane Gardener - an outreach initiative dedicated to cultivating compassion for all creatures great and small through animal-friendly, environmentally-sensitive landscaping methods.
She speaks frequently to local & national audiences, and volunteers as both a master naturalist and master gardener in central Maryland.
Nancy is the author of The Humane Gardener: Nurturing a Backyard Habitat for Wildlife, published by Princeton Architectural Press in April 2017 and highlighted in Oprah magazine, the Washington Post, and Library Journal
