Garden Ecology Lab
Studying the plants, insects, microbes, and decisions that improve or degrade a garden’s ability to promote environmental and human health.

Our current projects focus on native plant - pollinator interactions, microbes in garden soils, urban agriculture and food production, and garden biodiversity. We work directly with gardeners to identify high priority projects that align with our areas of expertise. We are always on the lookout for new projects, but need to consider new projects in the context of current lab capacity, expertise, and funding.
