A great afternoon workshop about insects and plants provided an insight in how entomologists view a garden, and was a delightful excursion.
Doug Tallamy, author of Bringing Nature Home, and Jim Costa, Director of the Highlands Biological Station, led our workshop (part of the annual Landscaping with Native Plants symposium).
Highlands, NC is just over an hour from where we live, so a relatively easy trip 'up' into the mountains.
