Let's mix it up a bit and think about our lawns.
When we think about lawns, we think of turfgrass, which is the largest irrigated crop in the United States. But our lawns can be so much more! Lawns can offer greater plant diversity that can support different pollinators and serve a greater ecological function. So let's mix it up a bit and think about fun new ways we can think about our lawns. Join Dr. Taylor Clem as he speaks with Dr. Basil Iannone and UF/IFAS Extension Lake County's Brooke Moffis about their study on multi-species lawn alternatives.
