Who’s Nibbling in Your Garden? Coexisting with Deer & Other Mammals

with Joe Lamp’l and guest expert Nancy Lawson, The Humane Gardener
📅 Wednesday, November 19th, 2025
🕛 12:00–1:30 PM Eastern

Even the most experienced gardeners know the frustration of finding plants chewed down overnight. Deer, rabbits, groundhogs, moles, and many other mammals can turn your thriving garden into their buffet, and who can blame them? But the good news is, there are ways to peacefully coexist.

Join Joe Lamp’l and special guest Nancy Lawson, author of The Humane Gardener and Wildscape, for a thoughtful conversation on how to approach wildlife challenges in your garden without resorting to harmful or ineffective tactics.

Nancy will share ecological insights and compassionate strategies that help you protect your plants while supporting the larger web of life your garden depends on, specifically when it comes to mammals.

You’ll learn:

• Why common “pest” animals behave the way they do and what that means for your garden
• How to design and plant with nature in mind to minimize browsing and damage
• Practical, science-based deterrents and design tweaks that actually work
• How to turn frustration into understanding and create a garden that welcomes wildlife rather than fights it

Who is this Class For?

Home gardeners, homeowners, community groups (town boards, HOAs, etc.), nature centers and conservancies, native plant advocates, wildlife rehabbers, or or anyone looking to reduce conflict with local wildlife.

This webinar will help you see your garden through a more ecological lens and walk away with real solutions that make a difference.
