Class Basics: Live staking is a quick, low-labor way to add fast-rooting shrubs to wetlands and riparian buffers to help prevent erosion. Bare-root plants are dormant, in-ground–grown seedlings that are lifted and prepared for planting in your garden.
Benefits: Both options are low-cost methods of planting a larger quantity of shrubs and trees, often used by conservation organizations. We have used both methods here at our Nursery, Farm and Campground to improve our stream banks, and to populate larger areas with seedlings.
Instructor Bio: Nathan Buchanan is the owner of Wildbud Natives, in Marshall, NC, which is a conservation nursery, growing native trees, shrubs, grasses, perennials, and seed for conservation and restoration applications, including meadow building and streambank restoration. Nathan has grown the bare root plants we have on offer this year and will be preparing the live stakes as well.
