THE LECTURE that he’s been giving for a number of years is not-so-subtly called “Kill Your Lawn.” Ecological horticulturist Dan Jaffe Wilder knows that starting over and creating an entire native habitat instead of a lawn isn’t for everyone. But Dan just wants to grab our attention and get us to start to make some changes at least in the way we care for the turfgrass we do want in our landscapes. And maybe give up a little square footage of it to some other kind of more diverse planting, too, like the wild strawberries (Fragaria virginiana, inset). Alternative, more eco-focused styles of lawn care, along with some lawn alternatives is what he and I talked about on the podcast. Dan is Director of Applied Ecology at Norcross Wildlife Foundation in Wales, Massachusetts, and its 8,000-acre sanctuary. He’s also co-author with Mark Richardson of the book “Native Plants for New England Gardens.”

Just watched & you were perfect … a bit nervous (who wouldn’t be?) and you have GREAT hair. Who knew? Thanks – Mimi
Great to see you on Martha’s show. I just found your blog and can’t wait to read your book. You’ve inspired me to reconsider some possibilities about how I’d like to live my life through middle-age and beyond. Looking forward to exploring your blog!
Welcome to Pamela, Linda, Penelope, Barbara. Always glad to meet Friends of Martha. :)
Linda, how kind of you to remember my influence on the magazine. Thanks.
Pamela: You can blame me for any changes you decide to make, tee hee.
Penelope: Excited to see how you enjoy it; keep me posted!
Barbara: I sometimes like them even thicker (less sauce, more darkened…like the sweeteners practically crystallize if you leave them in longer…try both ways!).
