About this webinar:
Sometimes referred to as a punk rock botanist, Joey has built his public persona on his colourful language, interesting life story and unwavering passion for native plants. In fact, the description on Joey’s YouTube Channel: Crime Pays but Botany Doesn’t describes the content as “A Low-Brow, Crass Approach to Plant Ecology & Evolution as muttered by a Misanthropic Chicago Italian. We study plants through the lens of ecology and evolution, rather than what supposed anthropocentric uses they can provide (as if holding up the biosphere wasn’t enough).” That description gives you an idea of what to expect during the webinar.
On February 25th, we’ve asked Joey to present on his top five favorite native Carolinian plants. His presentation will take up less than half of the webinar and the remainder of the time we are saving for the audience to ask questions. This is a different experience than what our members can expect from a typical speaker at NANPS, and the aim is to have fun and enjoy a novel approach to a familiar (and much loved) topic: Native plants!
NANPS is working hard to bring you interesting, informative and entertaining webinar content this year. We interviewed Board member Kimberly Bell from our Webinar Team to find out more. Read the interview here.
