Advanced Training Opportunity: Presentation on the Borderlands Restoration Network Native Plant Program, May 17, at Carr House, 1:30 pm

The Friends of Huachuca Mountains are sponsoring an interesting program presented by the Borderlands Restoration Network. The Borderlands Restoration Network Native Plant Program was founded in 2012 when a group of restoration practitioners identified and responded to the need for locally produced native plants. Native plants have spent centuries developing distinct adaptations to regional conditions, held deep in the plants' genomes and expressed as increased drought tolerance, cold tolerance, and high nectar quantities for local pollinators.

Before the event, you can order from borderlandsplants.org online and your purchase will be delivered to the Carr House the day of the program. There is a place to write notes in the order and you need to just write "Carr House 5/17" and they will deliver anything ordered, plant, seed, shirt or book.

Carr House is located at 1011 East Carr Canyon Road in Hereford.
