Annual Membership Meeting with guest speaker Carianne Funicelli
location:
Saturday, January 7, 2023
2:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Meeting with guest speaker Carianne Funicelli, founder of Strategic Habitat Enhancements (www.strategichabitats.com), with a presentation on Creating Site-specific Native Plant Palettes for Pollinator Conservation
Carianne will share her approach to building native plant palettes to meet different objectives. Using a bloom calendar approach, it is possible to look at a group of species all at once to predict collective bloom patterns throughout the year. This is a great tool for identifying potential bloom gaps and species to fill them, as well as a basis for phenological monitoring to hone the palette over time.
We will be selling field guides, jewelry, our 2023 CAzBA calendar and some butterfly related art on our "book table". There will definitely be time to socialize with drinks and munchies provided.
Location is Papago Buttes Church of the Brethren, 2450 N. 64th Street, Scottsdale, AZ 85257 (On the NW corner of Oak and 64th St. (about a mile north of the Desert Botanical Garden).
