SUMMARY:Bare Root & Live Stakes Class
DESCRIPTION:Master low-cost\, high-impact planting techniques before spring arrives! \nLearn two powerful methods for establishing native plants while they’re dormant—perfect for stream bank restoration\, erosion control\, or populating larger areas without breaking the bank. Whether you’re tackling a problem slope or dreaming of a native restoration project\, this workshop will give you the practical skills to make it happen. \nWhat You’ll Learn: \nLive Staking: A fast\, low-labor technique for adding quick-rooting shrubs to wetlands and riparian buffers.

This class is perfect for landowners\, stream stewards\, native plant enthusiasts\, and anyone looking to restore habitat on a budget.
