I've heard that turfgrass is the most widely cultivated "crop" in the world. But at what value, and more importantly, at what cost?
In my community is a self-taught ecologist that is on a mission to re-wild the urban yard, starting with his own. Samuel Hollingsworth has become a fixture among our pollinator programs and a champion for all things wild and NOT monocultured.
In this conversation, we explore Sam's journey from native plant enthusiast to Lorax for the insects, so to speak. He's even gone so far as to launch his own native landscaping business, Prairie Roots Landscaping.
Enjoy this discussion with someone with a rather untraditional path into the world of ecology and land restoration.
