On Wednesday, April 21, 2021 the Orcas Island Garden Club will welcome Dr. Linda Chalker-Scott to give a virtual presentation titled The Informed Gardener:  Gardening Myths. 

Dr. Chalker-Scott will help us differentiate good gardening advice from bad advice. The answers may surprise you! Her work has debunked myths that in many cases were causing damage to plants and environmental health. She will share many of these myths with us today.

Dr. Linda Chalker-Scott is Washington State University’s Extension Urban Horticulturist, bringing science-based information to gardeners and landscape professionals. She is the award-winning author of five books, including the latest edition of Gardening with Native Plants of the Pacific Northwest. She is featured in The Science of Gardening video series produced by The Great Courses, and was the first recipient of the Cynthia Westcott Scientific Writing Award from the Association for Garden Communicators. She also manages the Garden Professors blog and Facebook group, which educate and entertain tens of thousands of international followers.
