Learn to grow your own forest ecosystem—even in small spaces! Explore how trees interact with soil\, water\, air\, and each other to form resilient systems. Participants will learn about root architecture\, leaf morphology\, and tree carbon sequestration while designing a mini food forest or habitat garden. Discuss species selection for urban and suburban settings. Leave with a planting plan and the science-backed skills to foster backyard biodiversity. Learn more here Maddie Eberly is a consulting forester with Silver Maple Forestry. They studied forestry and botany at the University of Maine\, graduating in 2021. Since university\, Maddie worked as an invasive plant biologist with the Maine Natural Areas Program\, forest science communicator with the Forest Stewards Guild\, and educator and forest manager for the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association. Originally from Pennsylvania\, they are now the proud steward of seven forested acres in the northern Midcoast region.
