Native plant fans show off your DIY skills in this wreath-making contest [Los Angeles Times]
So here’s the challenge: How can you build statewide awareness and appreciation for California native plants … during the holidays … in the middle of a pandemic … when everyone is supposed to stay home?
Create a free-to-enter wreath-making contest, of course, with celebrity judges, prizes and the requirement that at least 51% of the materials be cultivated, ethically harvested California native plants.
Translation: Don’t go running into the wild (or your neighbor’s yard) and start pulling up native plants by the roots, said David Bryant, campaigns and engagement manager for the California Native Plant Society and creator of the new Wreath Masters contest. If wreaths are made from materials foraged from the wild, they will be disqualified.
