Wild Ones Meeting featuring Jack Pizzo
There was a Wild Ones (Greater DuPage chapter) meeting last night. Jack Pizzo's presentation on native plant landscaping was interesting. He is a founding partner of Pizzo & Associates, Ltd. which is a full service firm specializing in the restoration of natural areas for public and private landowners. He was an engaging speaker and he had an excellent set of slides to illustrate his points.
I was concerned about his advocacy of the use of RoundUp. I understand that the size of the projects he undertakes make the use of herbicides very attractive, but we humans needs to be careful about thinking that we understand everything perfectly. Mr. Pizzo and many others believe that glyphosate based herbicides are harmless, but how can we be so sure?
