SUMMARY:Hamden Land Conservation Trust Plant Installation
DESCRIPTION:Thank you to our HLCT volunteers this past Saturday. They did their job of removing invasive mugwort at our site at Hamden Town Center Park so well\, that now we have a bare patch to fill with new native pollinator perennials. But we need to act fast. Please join us if you can for a pop-up plant installation at Hamden Town Center Park this Saturday\, August 29 from 9-11am. Heavy rain cancels. Please check back here at www.hlct.org if in doubt as to the weather. Wear gloves and sturdy shoes and bring a refillable water bottle. Tools if you have them. We’ll provide some tools. \nDirections to the site: Pull into the Hamden Middle School (2623 Dixwell Avenue) and follow the road down the hill. Turn left at the “T” and take an immediate left at the sign that says “Event Parking.”  Park and meet at the rain garden site on the side nearest the library.

SUMMARY:Barn Talk: Designing Fall Containers: Bold Texture and Seasonal Color
DESCRIPTION:With fall already approaching\, it’s time to rethink your pots and planters for the season ahead. The transition from summer to autumn brings unique environmental challenges\, and well-composed fall containers require more than simply replacing tired annuals. Designer Beth Crowell will reveal the technical and artistic principles behind professional fall container design\, including container preparation\, soil improvement\, and selecting cold-tolerant plants that thrive as temperatures cool and light levels shift. Through carefully chosen examples\, you’ll see how structure\, plant placement\, texture\, form\, and color work together to create displays with lasting impact. Whether you’re designing new containers or refreshing existing ones\, you’ll leave with practical design strategies\, a list of top-performing fall plants\, and a deeper understanding of how professionals create containers that evolve beautifully throughout the season.
