Immigrant Gardens and Their Impact on The American Terrain

Speaker: Wambui Ippolito, Horticulturist and Landscape designer, winner of the Best in Show at the 2021 Philadelphia Flower Show 

Immigrant gardeners today continue to alter landscape here in America today. Much like the first settlers, today’s immigrants continue to introduce both beneficial and problematic plants and practices as they work the ground. Wambui Ippolito takes us through various immigrant garden landscapes and histories with the hopes of having a new understanding and approach to immigrant land management.
