News from Mt. Cuba

Though the tour season is just about over, Mt. Cuba Center is not closing down, just taking a winter break. We'll continue to offer classes, both onsite and online, that will keep your garden interests flowing when the cold season descends. Here's an article written by some of the Mt. Cuba Center staff with tips for preparing your garden for winter.

Coming up this week is Project Feeder Watch (Saturday, November 10, 10AM - 12 Noon, $15). Track our winter bird populations and learn how to identify common birds you might you might find on your feeders. All data collected will be sent to Cornell University's Lab of Ornithology. An information packet from Cornell is included in the registration fee.

In January, we welcome back Dr. Doug Tallamy, University of Delaware professor and author of Bringing Nature Home: How Native Plants Sustain Wildlife in Our Gardens. While we know and understand the importance of using native plants in the landscape, many people don't realize the number of wildlife that are benefitting from these friendly sources of food and shelter. Discover Treasures Among Our Natives on Wednesday, January 16, 2013, 7-9PM. The cost is $20 and includes a dessert reception.
        
 For any class, you may register at www.mtcubacenter.org, or by calling 302-239-4244. As always, I look forward to sharing the beauty of Mt. Cuba Center with you, onsite and online.
