SUMMARY:AHS LIVE: Shrublands of the American West
DESCRIPTION:Shrublands exist all around us\, thriving in almost any environmental condition\, from the desiccating sunshine of the endless sagebrush steppe to the deep\, private shade of moist forests. These diverse and inspiring ecosystems serve as perfect models for our gardens. Beyond their inherent beauty\, they provide nurturing habitats\, demonstrate resilience in the face of a changing climate\, and offer a challenge to conventional garden-making through their intense aesthetics and obscured intentions. Join coauthor Michael Guidi of Shrouded in Light: Naturalistic Planting Inspired by Wild Shrublands to explore a glorious spectrum of wild shrublands and discover the philosophies and design strategies for bringing these magnificent plant communities into your home garden. \nMichael Guidi is the Manager of Horticulture Research Programs at Denver Botanic Gardens\, where he integrates scientific research\, ecological theory\, and practical horticulture to promote resilient plant choices and landscape strategies. His work spans a wide range of topics\, including plant breeding\, plant tissue culture\, direct-seeded vegetation\, and green infrastructure. An advocate for dynamic\, self-sustaining gardens\, he demonstrates how thoughtful planting design can enhance biodiversity\, bolster ecological resilience\, and improve human well-being. In 2024\, he coauthored Shrouded in Light: Naturalistic Plantings Inspired by Wild Shrublands\, a book that explores the biology\, philosophical foundations\, and landscape potential of shrubland habitats worldwide. Michael holds a master’s degree in Ecology from Colorado State University. \nVirtual\n$15 AHS members/$20 non-members\nAll virtual programs are in ET\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:AHS Live: Behind-the-Scenes Tour: High Line
DESCRIPTION:The High Line gardens are famous for their lush and emotionally evocative four-season design and the High Line continues to evolve\, responding to a changing city and a maturing tree canopy requiring careful curation from a talented team of horticulturists. Join Richard Hayden\, Senior Director of Horticulture\, for a tour and deep dive into the stewardship techniques employed\, the iconic plants and the ecological function of this reclaimed railway garden. We’ll also tour two new garden sections designed by Piet Oudolf\, whose original design and long term collaboration with the High Line has helped to keep the garden at the forefront of public gardens\, prompting the New York Times to label it ‘One of the 25 Must See Gardens of the World.’ \nRichard Hayden is a passionate horticulturist dedicated to an ecological and naturalistic approach to garden care and design. Since 2022 he has served as the Senior Director of Horticulture at the High Line where he leads a team of horticulturists in the stewardship and public programming of an historic\, elevated rail line on the west side of Manhattan that was reclaimed to become a biodiverse public garden with naturalistic plantings designed by Piet Oudolf. \nHayden previously served as Assistant Deputy Director at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (NHMLA)\, where he was the primary project manager for the reimagining of the La Brea Tar Pits Museum and eleven acre park site. He also oversaw the Nature Gardens at NHMLA\, a wildlife habitat garden\, where he collaborated with scientists\, educators and interpreters to promote the garden as a leading site for the study of urban nature. \n$40 AHS members/$50 non-members\nAll tours are listed in location’s timezone\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Discover MBBG’s local Pollinators and Birds
DESCRIPTION:Ever wondered exactly which pollinators visit the Miami Beach Botanical Garden and which plants they prefer? Over the past month\, YLAI Fellow and ecologist Angélica Pineda has been conducting rigorous ecological monitoring at The MBBG\, and in this special program\, she’ll reveal her results!\nThe first part of the program will feature a presentation on the specific pollinators found in Miami Beach\, the exact plant species they visit at MBBG\, and how you can use this data to design a functional\, low-maintenance garden at home. Following the presentation\, Angélica will lead a guided walking tour to the Garden’s specific “Biodiversity Hotspots” to see these interactions live.\nWhat to bring: Comfortable walking shoes\, a reusable water bottle\, note book and your smartphone/camera to capture the pollinators and birds\, binoculars if you can (optional). \nAngélica Pineda is a biologist and microbiologist with a master’s degree in biodiversity use and conservation. She is also the co-founder of EndémiCO Colombia. Through their “Ecological Matchmaking” method\, she and her team use native and endemic plant species to transform traditional urban areas into thriving conservation spots that restore local biodiversity and support pollinators.\nBeyond landscape design\, EndémiCO actively promotes environmental education in Colombia by hosting hands-on workshops that empower citizens to understand\, build\, and protect their local ecosystems. As a 2026 Young Leaders of the Americas Initiative Fellow\, Angélica has spent her time at MBBG systematizing pollinator data to reveal the garden’s biodiversity and ways to conserve it.

SUMMARY:Learn the Art of Summer Jam Making
DESCRIPTION:Want to savor the fruits of summer all year long? Join Marinda Freeman for a hands-on canning class and learn how easy it can be! \nBack by popular demand! \nIn this relaxed and fun class\, you’ll learn the basics of jam making and safe canning techniques while we work together using whatever fruits are freshest and most abundant. \nMarinda Freeman has been canning fruits and vegetables for over 50 years\, turning the best of each season into jars of goodness. Every summer she fills her pantry with jams\, chutneys\, and preserves—so when the holidays arrive\, she has beautiful homemade gifts ready to share. Truly\, there’s love in every jar. \nDepending on what’s in season\, we may make: \n• Apricot jam \n• Strawberry lemon jam \n• Peach jam \nThis is a hands-on class\, limited to 8 participants so all will take part in the full process—from preparing the fruit to stirring the pots and filling the jars. \nCome experience the simple pleasure of turning fresh fruit into something you can enjoy long after summer has passed

SUMMARY:June Botanical Printmaking
DESCRIPTION:Use foraged materials to create dramatic images from nature. \nJoin Marin-based photographer and printmaker Ben Davidson and photo teacher and artist Laurie Reemsnyder for a creative printmaking workshop using botanical material gathered from the garden grounds and Marin’s hills and forests. \nWe start with a 20-minute “foraging” walk around the 11-acre garden\, then head to the Cottage for a 60 minute printmaking session\, using the cyanotype (photo) process if the day is sunny. On an overcast day\, we will gather plant material to create elegant botanical stencil prints. \nAll participants will receive a wooden frame to showcase their favorite creation from this fun and informative nature walk and printmaking workshop.
