Today we meet entomologist, researcher and author Douglas Tallamy. the book is called, Nature’s Best Hope, a new approach to conservation that starts in your yard.
He shares about plant and insect interactions, ornamentals and how they are affecting the local food webs, and his ongoing research on invasive plants.
Then Douglas gives a directive for creating a sustainable relationship with the earth, focused on our yards and three-dimensional, native landscapes.
His category of keystone plants that drive the food webs and can help restore nature and extend preserved lands.
This goes beyond just any native plants and focuses on those that are extremely productive in their support of the food webs.
This book inspired me, and I hope you will go out and order yourself a copy. Enjoy my interview with Douglas, and follow up with the resources he mentions in our interview!
