Dr. Tallamy is a Professor of Agriculture in the Department of Entomology and Wildlife Ecology at the University of Delaware - an entomologist, ecologist, and conservationist widely known for his national advocacy of native plant gardening. He is the author of several influential books including the bestseller Nature's Best Hope, and co-founder of the nonprofit Homegrown National Park, which encourages habitat restoration in residential and public spaces. Dr. Tallamy will share practical insights on how home landscapes can support biodiversity and strengthen local ecosystems through native plants.
