Snaith is an expert on sustainable cultural adaptations, and she'll discuss how these gardening methods can help gardeners, environmental activists, industrial agriculturalists and the general public. She will address how to obtain higher yields from gardens by creating efficient self-sustaining ecosystems, as well as discuss the details of global climate change.
The program is free and open to the public.
Snaith has a degree in anthropology and sociology, focusing on sustainable cultural adaptations.
