The next PHCA community meeting is Tuesday, May 1 at 7:30 pm at the Pimmit Hills Center on Lisle Avenue (see map below). The special speaker will be Phil Goetkin, a horticulturalist and native plant specialist who works at the Wolf Trap Center for the Performing Arts.
Goetkin will be speaking about topics such as: when is the best time to plant grass, what can grow under the shade of the large trees in Pimmit Hills, why native plants are important and what he recommends, the importance of composting and mulching, what to do with a bare front lawn and more. He'll also answer your questions.
PHCA will be giving away door prizes at the end of the meeting. We have two rain barrels and native seedling plants that you could win. Also, those cool green Pimmit Hills t-shirts that volunteers were wearing at the Earth Day Cleanup will be for sale for $6. Please join us, all are welcome!
