The horticulturist at one of the country’s premier golf courses definitely knows a thing or two about how to care for lawns. Come hear Bruce Wenning (of Brooklineʼs famous The Country Club!) share his ecologically safe and economical practices for lawn care as he shows you everything you can do to ensure a great lawn. This workshop covers the basics of organic lawn care, including the importance of soil testing to know your soil’s pH and fertility, non-chemical control of insect pests and weeds, and other practices that promote and maintain a healthy lawn.
Bruce Wenning is Horticulturalist at The Country Club in Chestnut Hill, Mass. With a background in plant pathology and entomology he is an expert in plant pest diagnostics, invasive species management, and plant-insect natural history. He is a public speaker on various horticultural subjects, and has been serving on the Board of Directors for the Ecological Landscaping Association since 2003.
