Please check back soon.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Why is nature-enhancing landscaping becoming more and more popular?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Because less lawn and more native and pollinator-friendly plants help keep residential landscapes in line with local ecology \u2014 and that increases biodiversity. Not only are we more likely to encounter wildlife, there\u2019s less grass to mow. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition, some landscaping features, such as rain gardens, even remove pollution and reduce downstream harm from stormwater runoff. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In coastal areas and on waterways, by using \u201cliving shorelines\u201d we can maintain the ecological connections between land and water that many species of plant and animal require, while homeowners also benefit from highly effective erosion control.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In this free webinar, <a href=\"https:\/\/ncseagrant.ncsu.edu\/about-us\/our-team\/jane-harrison\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jane Harrison<\/a> of <a href=\"http:\/\/ncseagrant.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">North Carolina Sea Grant<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/ncseagrant.ncsu.edu\/about-us\/our-team\/christy-perrin\/\">Christy Perrin<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/wrri.ncsu.edu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">North Carolina Water Resources Research Institute<\/a> will explain the <a href=\"https:\/\/ncseagrant.ncsu.edu\/program-areas\/healthy-ecosystems\/coastal-landscapes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Coastal Landscapes Initiative<\/a>, a program that promotes sustainable coastal landscaping choices. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You can access and use their information and resources around your home, in your neighborhood and across your community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Join the conversation!<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Register in advance for the webinar presentation.<br \/>\n<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/go.ncsu.edu\/coastalyards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/go.ncsu.edu\/coastalyards&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1576860955375000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFI9764AwPppgAOydDXlt3PU0xhAQ\">https:\/\/go.ncsu.edu\/coastalyards<\/a><br \/>\n<em>After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Watch the archived version<\/strong><br \/>\nBusy on Jan. 16?
