Join Joey Santore, creator of Crime Pays But Botany Doesn’t, for a candid Wild Ones National Webinar examining how inherited garden aesthetics shape native plant landscapes. Drawing on field experience and real ecology, Joey challenges tidy design norms and explores why dense, irregular plant communities are often the most resilient and ecologically sound.

In this talk, you will learn about the living world below your feet that is often overlooked in today's world. We will explore what living soil is through the lens of a microscope, how the plants in your yard are chatting & farming microbes, and explain how you can become a soil steward at home.
