Garden Talk: Discouraging Critters
by Rachel Kudrick 17 Mar '17

17 Mar '17

Plant Choices to Discourage Critters from Your Yard [X] Hello again, neighbors! Please join us this Saturday (March 18th) for the monthly meeting of the Highland Park Garden Club as we are delighted to present: Angela Yuele of the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy Perhaps you’ve seen Angela as she diligently beautifies and maintains the wonderful gardens at the park’s entrance throughout the seasons. She is a Horticulturist and our community partner for “Weeding Wednesdays.” Angela will be offering tips and strategies about how to keep all that pesky urban wildlife, such deer, groundhogs, possums and squirrels, from destroying your yard and garden. The meeting will be held at 10:00 am and refreshments will be served! Please contact Rachel for location at rkudrick(a)live.com (or by simply hitting “reply” to this email) or via call or text at 412-251-9759. (Consider joining the club for merely $15/year and be invited to participate in members-only events, such as guided tours of local gardens!) We hope to see you there!
