Educational Lectures
Our mission includes educating and engaging the public on environmental stewardship, conservation and sustainable landscapes. To this end we sponsor an Educational Lecture Series for our community.
We were thrilled to welcome 70 guests in February for an inspiring evening with David Hughes, RLA as he presented Creating Wildflower Meadows. David delivered an engaging and informative lecture filled with practical how-to guidance and beautiful real-world examples—perfect inspiration for anyone looking to add habitat, color, and ecological value to their landscape.

Stay tuned for details on our next lecture this Spring 2026.
We had a fantastic turnout for the return of our Educational Lecture Series in October — 75 attendees joined us to hear from Dan Bangert, leader of the Grounds Team at Pennsylvania Hospital.
Dan shared insights on creating garden environments that inspire connection and healing, reminding us how thoughtfully designed plantings can nurture both body and spirit. He generously donated his speaker fee to the Bucks Beautiful Scholarship Fund, which supports students studying horticulture.
A special highlight of the evening — Dan connected with audience member Michael Flanagan by sharing a cutting from Albert Einstein’s begonia, continuing its remarkable legacy.
