Solving Door County Landscape Problems with Native Plants

March 19, 2024 by Laurel Ciohon

Next Door County Master Gardeners lecture. Free and open to the public.

Sturgeon Bay, Wis. (March 19, 2024) – Many gardeners in Door County are interested in using more native plants because they provide food for insects, birds, bats, small mammals and other wildlife, but they’re unsure how to successfully use these plants. At the next Door County Master Gardeners Educational Lecture, Justin Kroening, owner of Stone Silo Prairie Gardens, will explore how to solve Door County landscape problems with native plants. 

The lecture, which is free and open to the public, will be in-person at Crossroads at Big Creek on Tuesday, March 26, at 6:30 p.m. 

The 2024 DCMGA Educational Lecture Series is being presented with support from the Door County Medical Center. The Kroening lecture is presented in collaboration with Crossroads at Big Creek and Wild Ones of the Door Peninsula. 

About Stone Silo Prairie Gardens: Stone Silo Prairie Gardens specializes in wildflowers and grasses native to the Upper Midwest, growing over 100 varieties of plants that can be used in perennial gardens or rain gardens. Natives are the perfect choice for the green gardener.

About Door County Master Gardeners: The Door County Master Gardeners Association (DCMGA) was founded in 1995 to provide horticulture-related services to the community. Master Gardener volunteers maintain The Garden Door, a free educational display garden at the Peninsular Agricultural Research Station that is open to the public year-round. DCMGA also puts on free educational programs and provides volunteer horticultural services to youth and not-for-profit organizations throughout the county. DCMGA serves as the fiscal sponsor for the Door County Seed Library, a community resource for gardening education and free vegetable, herb, and flower seeds.
