SUMMARY:2019 VNLA Summer Meeting & Trade Show
DESCRIPTION:2019 SUMMER MEETING\n& TRADE SHOW\nAugust 1\, 2019\nFairfax Perennial Farm\n7 Blackberry Hill Road\nFairfax\, VT  05454\nPRE-REGISTRATION IS CLOSED.\nWALK-IN REGISTRATION WILL BE AVAILABLE.\nPROGRAM\nOur keynote speaker is Larry Weaner.  Larry has been creating native landscapes since 1977. He founded Larry Weaner Landscape Associates in 1982 and has gained a national reputation for combining ecological restoration with garden design traditions. In 2008 he received the top three design awards from the Association of Professional Landscape Designers\, and his work has been profiled in regional and national publications\, including The New York Times. An active guest lecturer and instructor for horticultural and environmental organizations throughout the U.S\, he developed New Directions in the American Landscape\, a conference series dedicated to advancing the art and science of natural landscape design. Larry will be giving two presentations in the morning. \nAfter lunch we will hold our annual “Summer Auction” which helps us fund our educational initiatives and programs.  Following the auction there will be a presentation “Beekeeping in the Nursery and Beyond” w/Ralph Fitz-Gerald of Horsford Gardens & Nursery. The rest of the afternoon will be open for everyone to participate in the “Fairfax Perennial Farm Amazing Race” where you can test your greenhouse/nursery skills and get a real taste of what “perennial farming” is all about.  The complete schedule/details are below as well as registration.  The pre-registration deadline is July 22\, 2019. \nSCHEDULE\n8:00 – 9:00 am – Trade Show Registration \n8:00 -10:30 am – VCH Exam \n9:00 -10:00 am –  Keynote Speaker:  Larry Weaner\, founder of Larry Weaner Landscape Associates – “Finding Your Niche: Establishing an Ecological Focus for Your Firm”. \nDemand for ecologically beneficial landscapes is increasing\, and businesses with an ecological focus realize an expanded client base and an invigorated creative atmosphere.  Offering an ecological approach\, however\, requires knowledge and skills rarely taught in horticulture and design programs.  This presentation guides landscape architects\, designers\, contractors\, and others through what’s needed to establish a respected\, visible presence in the fields of ecological landscape design and management.  Participants gain a new understanding of local plant communities\, learn about design projects modeled on regional ecosystems\, acquire practical design\, restoration\, and management techniques\, and discover new ways grow their skills and businesses. \n10:00 – 10:30 am – Visit with Vendors \n10:30 – 11:30 – “Living in the Liberated Landscape”\, w/Larry Weaner.   \nAll too often in our gardens and landscapes we think of static compositions of carefully placed and managed plants.  But our approach can be more dynamic—and arguably more rewarding—than that by taking advantage of plants’ natural abilities to reproduce and proliferate.  Learn how designer Larry Weaner combines design with the reproductive abilities of plants as well as ecological processes to create compelling\, ever-evolving landscapes that bring new meaning to partnering with nature.  Using examples from his own property as well as diverse client projects\, Larry will share how this give-and-take approach can result in compelling\, low-maintenance landscapes that free plants to perform according to their natural abilities and liberate people from having to cater to their landscapes’ every need. \n11:30 – 12:00 pm – Visit with Vendors/Tour \n12:00 – 1:00 pm – Lunch \n1:00 – 2:00 pm – VNLA/Green Works Live Auction \nPlease consider donating a plant\, book\, tool\, or item of your choice for the live auction! Proceeds from the auction fund horticulture-related education awards the Association grants each year. These students are the future of our industry. Bring your wallet! \n2:00 – 2:30 pm Visit with Vendors \n2:30 – 3:30 pm “Beekeeping in the Nursery & Beyond” \, w Ralph Fitz-Gerald\, Horsford Gardens & Nursery. \nJoin Ralph as he shares one of his passions with us- beekeeping! Learn about what it takes to keep bees\, including the equipment you need to get started. \n3:30 – 4:30 pm – “The Fairfax Perennial Farm Amazing Race”. \nHannah\, Dana\, and their staff have put together a series of tasks where you can test your greenhouse/nursery skills and get a real taste of what “perennial farming” is all about. We will break up into teams and a friendly competition will ensue\, complete with prizes at the end of this Amazing Race! We don’t want to give away too many of the details – be prepared for anything! \nSPEAKER PROFILES\nLarry Weaner has been creating native landscapes since 1977.

Phone: (802) 656-5434\, Email:cfrank@uvm.edu \n  \n  \n  \n  \nBill Landesman is an environmental microbiologist who applies molecular techniques to study how microbial communities – that is\, the assembly of bacteria\, fungi and other microscopic organisms – affect ecosystem processes of importance to humanity. Bill maintains two major areas of research: a) the microbial ecology of Lyme disease and b) the biogeography of soil microbial communities. In recent yearshe has diverted all of his attention to studying the ecological factors affecting the risk of acquiring Lyme disease in Vermont. Specifically\, Bill studies how tick population sizes\, as well as the infection prevalence of Borrelia burgdorferi\, the spirochete bacterium that causes Lyme disease\, change over time and space. In addition\, Bill is investigating a potential link between the composition of the tick microbiome and the probability that a tick is a carrier for Borrelia burgdorferi. His research is carried out in collaboration with a team of undergraduate researchers at Green Mountain College. When he is not in the field or the lab\, he teaches Ecology\, Microbiology and Soil Ecology. \n  \n  \n \nAshley Robinson is the VNLA Vice-President and was educated at the Landscape Institute in Cambridge MA\, and worked for a renowned landscape architect\, in MA.

SUMMARY:Montreal Botanic Garden Tour
DESCRIPTION:September 17\, 2018 – Monday – A SECOND BUS HAS BEEN ADDED!\nYou will not want to miss this day tour to one of the world’s top garden attractions\, the Montreal Botanic Gardens\, and a chance to see their famous fall Chinese lantern display.   Leaving the Horticulture Research Center in So. Burlington at 8am\, returning around 7pm\, we’ll travel in a Premier luxury coach. This tour is sponsored by the Vermont Nursery and Landscape Association/Green Works\, \, in collaboration with Dr. Leonard Perry\, Horticulture Professor Emeritus from the University of Vermont\, and his Green Mountain Horticulture Tours. \nRefreshments will be served going and coming\, and the videos on the bus will give you an overview of these gardens—among the largest in the world– and show you the development of them on the way up\, and showcase other gardens on the way back. The tour price includes admission to the greenhouse conservatories and gardens\, and includes an optional hour guided tour. Lunch may be purchased at the gardens\, or you may bring your own. Keep in mind the mileage alone (figured at the federal rate) if you drove would be more than the total price of this tour\, would entail dealing with Montreal traffic\, and wouldn’t even include parking and gardens admission\, as well as the chance to meet and learn from Dr. Perry and others with garden interests–all part of this tour. \nThis display of hundreds of hand-made silk Chinese lanterns is of course stunning at night\, but is even more colorful and easily seen in daylight. Each year the main display represents a new theme and new lanterns\, some floating in the pond\, some over 10 feet high.

SUMMARY:VNLA 2018 Summer Meeting & Trade Show Attendee Registration
DESCRIPTION:August 22\, 2018\nShelburne Farms Coach Barn\n8:00 am – 4:00 pm\nPRE-REGISTRATION IS CLOSED. \nWALK-INS WELCOME THE DAY OF ($15/extra the day of)  \nLunch will not be available. \nRegistration to take the VCH exam is below.  \nThe Day’s Schedule\n\n8:00 – 9:00 am – Trade Show Registration \n8:00 -10:30 am – VCH Exam \n9:00 -10:00 am – Keynote Address w/Dan Jaffe\, New England Wild Flower Society.  “For Us and Them: Native Plants for Both Us and the Pollinators to Feast Upon” – There are a variety of reasons why people chose to grow plants. The most common reason is often aesthetic in nature. We like the look of a garden\, it gives us a place to relax\, or play\, or drink wine with friends. However simple beauty is not always enough for people\, the popularity of edible and pollinator gardens has skyrocketed of late but these trends can be complicated. Which plants attract which pollinators? Which edibles are resistant to diseases and pests? What if you could have it all? A beautiful\, edible garden that supports a myriad of pollinators\, what if it could be easy? Learn how low maintenance native plants can feed us and the pollinators together. \n
10:00 – 10:30 am – Visit with Vendors/Trade Show \n10:30 am-11:30am – “Lyme Disease\, the Black-Legged Tick\, and its Key Ecological Factors” w/Bill Landesman\, Green Mountain College microbiologist.  Lyme disease is the one of the most common vector borne diseases in the United States\, affecting an estimated 300\,000 people per year. The disease is especially prevalent in Vermont\, which has the second highest rate of Lyme disease reporting in the nation from 2014-2016. Prevention remains a key public health tool but one for which information on transmission risk is urgently needed. In the eastern United States\, Lyme disease is caused by Borrelia burgdorferi\, and transmitted by the bite of an infected black-legged tick (Ixodes scapularis). The black-legged tick may also transmit other pathogens as well. During this presentation we will discuss the life cycle of the black legged tick\, vector-pathogen dynamics that help to maintain Borrelia burgdorferi in nature\, and key ecological factors that influence the risk of disease transmission to humans. Bill will describe some preliminary results of his research\, as well as his research into the tick microbiome – the community of bacteria and other microbes that inhabit the black-legged tick. \n11:30 – 12:00pm – Special Membership Meeting \n12:00 – 1:00 pm – Lunch \n1:00 – 2:00 pm – Green Works Live Auction – Please donate a plant\, book\, tool\, or item of your choice for the live auction! Proceeds from the auction fund horticulture-related education awards the Association grants each year. These students are the future of our industry. Bring your wallet! \n  \n2:00 – 2:30 pm – Visit with Vendors/Trade Show \n  \n2:30 – 3:30 pm “Plants are Better than Mulch” w/ Dan Jaffe. We have a strange relationship with mulch in America. Landscaping often means a sea of red mulch dotted with a few over-pruned arborvitae shrubs. But how many gardeners got into the hobby for a love of mulch? Yet there are good reasons to use mulch\, it helps to control weeds\, prevents soil erosion and maintains soil nutrients. Yet for every advantage that mulch offers well-chosen plants work even better. From groundcovers to larger mat-forming species there is a plant for every area in the garden. Dan will speak about the myriad of plants that can take the place of mulch on your landscape. \nOR \n“Mean Green Products Demonstration on the Lawn” w/ AJ Bavaro\, Church Hill Landscapes\, Inc. and Steven Wisbaum\, Eco-Equipment Supply\, LLC – AJ will talk about Church Hill’s “Greener Lawn Care” program using all electric mowers and trimmers which was launched last year. AJ will share details about the operation\, use and management of these machines. Steve will be on hand to talk about the various product details\, specifications\, environmental benefits and cost savings. \n3:30 – 4:30 pm – “What have we here? A Round up of Pests and Diseases” w/Judy Rosovsky\, VT State Entomologist for a review of pest and diseases that you are likely to encounter on your nursery stock this year. Learn proper identification and cultural\, biological and chemical options for managing these problems. Earns one (1) pesticide credit. \n  \nOR \n  \n3:30 – 4:30 pm – “Shelburne Farms Inn Garden Tour w/ Birgit Deeds\, head gardener. Join Birgit for a tour of the beautiful gardens at the Inn and learn more about the garden restoration project that has been underway for the past few years. \n  \n  \nSpeaker Profiles\nDan Jaffe is the Propagator and Stock Bed Grower at New England Wild Flower Society’s Garden in the Woods. His past experience includes a degree in botany from the University of Maine\, an advanced certificate in Native Plant Horticulture and Design from New England Wild Flower Society\, and nursery management experience.  Prior to his role as propagator Dan spent a year as Plant Sales Coordinator at the Garden after an internship in that same role. Dan Jaffe’s photography has been used in numerous publications and his first book is due to be released this March. \nBill Landesman is an environmental microbiologist who applies molecular techniques to study how microbial communities – that is\, the assembly of bacteria\, fungi and other microscopic organisms – affect ecosystem processes of importance to humanity. Bill maintains two major areas of research: a) the microbial ecology of Lyme disease and b) the biogeography of soil microbial communities. In recent years he has diverted all of his attention to studying the ecological factors affecting the risk of acquiring Lyme disease in Vermont. Specifically\, Bill is studying how tick population sizes\, as well as the infection prevalence of Borrelia burgdorferi\, the spirochete bacterium that causes Lyme disease\, change over time and space. In addition\, he is investigating a potential link between the composition of the tick microbiome and the probability that a tick is a carrier for Borrelia burgdorferi. Bill’s research is carried out in collaboration with a team of undergraduate researchers at Green Mountain College. When he is not in the field or the lab\, he teaches Ecology\, Microbiology and Soil Ecology. \nJudy Rosovsky has spent over 30 years finding\, identifying and managing pest species in Vermont\, particularly invasive pest. She received her master’s degree from UVM’s Entomology Research Lab\, and is currently the state entomologist with the Agency of Agriculture\, Food and Markets. Part of her job is inspecting nurseries\, where she is able to get close up and personal with insect pests and diesases. \nBirgit Deeds is the head gardener at Shelburne Farms has has been volunteering there for 39 years. Birgit is a garden designer\, and previously worked for a landscape architect and studied at the Harvard/Radcliffe school. \nDOWNLOAD REGISTRATION FORM HERE.

SUMMARY:Designing Native & Ecological Plant Communities with Claudia West
DESCRIPTION:June 9\, 2018 – Saturday\n9:00am – 4:00 pm\nFourth Corner Foundation\n578 Hitchcock Hill Road\nWindham\, VT 05439\nThis workshop is hosted by Windsor & Windham County UVM Extension Master Gardeners.  The workshop is designed for all audiences – home gardeners\, landscapers and horticulturalists\, land conservation groups\, and others who want to learn about ecological planting design. Registrations are limited to 25 attendees to maximize learning. Lunch is included in the registration fee. \nDesigning Native and Ecological Plant Communities (5 hour workshop) \nFunctional and ecological plantings\, such as rain gardens and meadows\, are gaining in popularity but also face severe challenges. It is time for a new approach — a plant community-based method which has evolved in the world of ecological science. Join Claudia for this day long workshop as she translates ecological principles of wild plant communities into planting design tools that will help you create better planting. This interactive workshop will introduce you to the science behind stable and lasting plant combinations. You will learn the skill of creating plant communities in four hands-on design exercises and practice this technique in a hypothetical planting project at the end of the workshop. \nTo learn more about this workshop and to register please visit:  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/designing-native-ecological-plant-communities-with-claudia-west-tickets-45763446701

SUMMARY:VNLA/Green Works PoP Up Social/Film Screening at BCA
DESCRIPTION:April 18\, 2018 – 6pm\nArchitecture & Design Film Series/Burlington City Arts\nContois Auditorium\n149 Church Street\nBurlington\, VT 05401\nJoin VNLA Vice-President Ashley Robinson and fellow VNLA members for a “plant geek/let’s talk” get together after the sponsored Burlington City Arts film: Five Seasons: The Gardens of Piet Oudolf. Meet Ashley at the auditorium entrance and the group will decide where to dine and talk about plants\, the film and anything else that pops up! \nTHE FILM:  FIVE SEASONS: THE GARDENS OF PIET OUDOLF\nDirected by Thomas Piper\, 2016\, USA\, 70 Minutes\nFood and cash bar at 6pm \nScreening followed by discussion 6:30pm\n \nAdmission: Free \nAbout the Film:  Five Seasons: The Gardens of Piet Oudolf\, immerses viewers in Oudolf’s work and takes us inside his creative process\, from his beautifully abstract sketches\, to theories on beauty\, to the ecological implications of his ideas. Intimate discussions take place through all fours seasons in Piet’s own gardens at Hummelo\, and on visits to his signature public works\, as well as to the far-flung locations that inspire his genius. Piet Oudolf has radically redefined what gardens can be. As Rick Darke\, the famous botanist\, says to Piet in the film\, “your work teaches us to see what we have been unable to see.” Through poetic cinematography and unique access\, Five Seasons will reveal all that Piet sees\, and celebrate all that we as viewers have been unable to see.
