For Healthy Home and Garden

By
Star Staff

A free workshop on sustainable practices for house and garden will be held on Sunday at 10 a.m. at the Nature Conservancy on Route 114 in East Hampton. The Perfect Earth Project has organized a program that will include a chance for individual conversations about one’s own landscape needs with leading designers and plant specialists.

Those taking part will learn how to design and maintain their properties without synthetic pesticides and fertilizers dangerous for human health and the environment. There will be information on toxin-free landscaping, nitrogen-reducing septic technology, and other steps homeowners can take to improve water quality. Copies of a free guide to watershed-wise gardening will be distributed.

One-on-one consulting will be available from Ed Hollander, Abby Lawless, Tony Piazza, Geoffrey Nimmer, Jim Grimes of Fort Pond Native Plants, and Edwina von Gal. Registration has been requested by phone at 631-907-9040 or at perfectearthproject.org.
