Stack’s Trade Show Talk Cited in Press Herald Maine Gardener Column
Lois Berg Stack, an ornamental horticulture specialist with the University of Maine Cooperative Extension, spoke at the 2015 New England Grow trade show in Boston, according to the latest column in the Portland Press Herald’s Maine Gardener series. Stack spoke about research she is conducting on what native plants are most beneficial to bees and how those plants could attract younger gardeners, according to the article. “Young people are not gardening, but they are concerned about the environment and concerned about bees,” she said. “If we can get them to plant a little place for pollinators, there is huge potential.”
