Somersby Park residents represented half of the attendants during Laurel Park’s “Community Eco-Enviro Workshop” presented by Steve Pettis of the NC Extension Service. The community learned about sustainable gardening practices, implementing wildfire-resistant landscaping and helping erosion control. Future meetings are scheduled as we continue to enhance our natural beauty and continue to enjoy living in the Western North Carolina mountains.
Somersby Park is helping sponsor a free class offered in Laurel Park. “Community Eco-Enviro Workshop” will be presented Thursday, March 28 from 1-3pm by Steve Pettis of the NC Extension Service. Learn about:
