Join us at the Norwell Public Library for the 2nd installment of the Norwell Farms "Norwell GROWS Native" Lecture Series!

Kristen Nicholson is a co-owner of Blue Stem Natives and she will be discussing how native plants have immense value outside of just looking pretty. During the lecture you'll learn how having bountiful native plants in your garden helps to support beneficial insects, serves to conserve and improve water, reduces dependence on pesticides, and so much more. Kristen will discuss why it is important to choose native plants, how to choose the best plants for your space, and how to care for your garden!
