New York residents rely on a wide variety of natural resources including forested mountains; aquatic environments (wetlands, marshes, estuaries, streams and lakes); and an accompanying diversity of plant and animal species, for recreation, tourism, and raw products. Communities need education targeted to their specific concerns, including the interaction of natural resources, the environment, and the economy. And as a gardener, it is important to have an understanding of how plants grow and function. We could not survive without plants and depend on them for food, fossil fuels, lumber, fibers, medicines, paper, latex, resin, cork, spices, fragrances and dyes.In this module, you will learn more about:
- plant structure and function, participants will be able to translate these skills into more complex gardening topics
- good management practices, alternative land uses, protection of open space, and development of environmentally-sustainable natural resource based businesses
- pollinators and pollinator biodiversity in our environment
- best management tactics for accurate and early detection of plant diseases in landscapes and communities
