About our topic: We will cover the basics for selecting native plant seed for specific areas, how much to purchase, and how to plant the seed for the most success.
About our speaker: Since 2010, Dr. Megan Clayton has been an Extension Rangeland Specialist for Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service and the Department of Rangeland, Wildlife, and Fisheries Management at Texas A&M University. Her responsibilities as a Rangeland Specialist have her based at the Uvalde Research and Extension Center and include providing support for Extension agents, specialists, clientele, and organizations through teaching, training, and providing technical expertise on the management of rangeland resources.
Megan’s current interests include blending wildlife habitat and livestock range management, small acreage management, UAV (drone) research, brush management, and youth natural resources education. Her main area of responsibility includes the Uvalde/Hill Country area.
At every meeting, we give away a book — about native plants or the meeting topic — to one randomly chosen in-person attendee!
