Let it Be an Oak with Doug Tallamy

Let it Be an Oak
Recorded on Thursday, March 17, 2022
Presented by Doug Tallamy, Ph.D., author, entomologist, and University of Delaware professor

Once we have decided to restore the ecological integrity of our suburban neighborhoods, we need to decide what plants to add to our properties. Oaks are superior trees for suburban restoration projects because of their many ecological and aesthetic attributes. Doug Tallamy will compare oak species to other popular shade trees in terms of their ability to support animal diversity, protect watersheds, sequester carbon dioxide, and restore lost plant communities.

This lecture is a part of our monthly Third Thursday Lecture Series.
