Our Meadow Garden takes guests beyond the formal areas of Longwood into 86 acres of designed natural landscapes highlighting the beauty and functionality of native species.
Particularly during the summer, the landscape is draped in a stunning array of grasses and wildflowers that create habitat for wildlife, enrich the soil, and help manage water and invasive species. During this class, join Longwood’s Senior Ecology Technician Pandora Young as they explore and explain the many benefits provided by the meadow’s native species, discuss how meadows are created and maintained through disturbance events like fire, and take a close look at key species in this unique ecosystem.
