Fall is for Planting Garden Talk

Discover why fall is an ideal time to plant your garden! This garden talk led by Courtney Denning from Deeply Rooted Landscapes, covers the benefits of autumn planting for both gardeners and plants, including stronger root development and easier establishment.
Learn a practical planting timeline for the Dayton, Ohio area, and explore how native plants can thrive in your fall garden. The session also emphasizes “less is more” for fall garden chores, helping you care for your landscape efficiently.
Take home a handout with a list of native flowers, trees, and shrubs that provide beautiful fall color.
After the workshop, guests are welcome to explore the lavender and wildflower fields to pick a bundle of seasonal flowers to bring home as well!
