Attracting Songbirds to your Yard
The Medfield Garden Club will present Lisey Good, former Editor in Chief of the Garden Club of America Magazine on October 14th, 10AM, at the United Church of Christ, 496 Main St., Medfield. Among many accomplishments, Lisey founded WildCohasset.org to help native plants and the wildlife that depend on them for survival. Lisey will give a presentation on how to attract, and best support local songbirds while bringing your gardens even more alive. Strategic plant choices in even the tiniest of gardens can greatly help hummingbirds, finches, orioles and more! Doors for non-members will open at 9:50AM. Admission at the door for non-members will be a $5 donation. Members are free.
I hold regular monthly office hours at The Center on the first Friday of every month from 9:00 to 10:00 AM. Residents are welcome to stop by to talk in person about any town matters.

Medfield Gardner Neal Sanders Talks about Native Plants for Home Landscaping
Do you dream of a profusion of flowering perennials and shrubs in your yard? Sick of watering, raking, weeding?
Please come to Neal Sanders’ presentation “Reclaim Your Roots: How Native Plants Can Save you Money and Time”, Thursday September 30 at 6:30 at the Medfield Public Safety Building, 112 North St.
Local resident and nationally known author, Neal Sanders will present – with a great deal of humor and personal experience– the benefits of using native plants to establish your own show stopping landscape without the heartache. Discover how to identify and safely remove invasive plants and introduce native perennials that replace water guzzling lawns and thirsty annuals. He will also stress ‘going native’ is not an all-or-nothing deal – it’s okay to have lawn and non-natives: it’s all about the balance! And the local neighbors, flora and fauna, will admire your efforts!
This presentation is brought to you by The Medfield Garden Club and SustainableMedfield. More information can be found at https://tinyurl.com/muynefu6. Questions can be directed to Info@sustainableMedfield.org.
I started this blog to share the interesting and useful information that I saw while doing my job as a Medfield select board member. I thought that my fellow Medfield residents would also find that information interesting and useful as well. This blog is my effort to assist in creating a system to push the information out from the Town House to residents. Let me know if you have any thoughts on how it can be done better.
