April EcoFlora virtual lecture
Campaign for an Official NYC Wildflower
Marielle Anzelone
Tuesday, April 25, 5:00PM EST
What do local plants and ballot boxes have in common? They are both part of #VoteWildflowerNYC, a new campaign asking New Yorkers to vote for an official wildflower of New York City.
Five plant species - nominated by partner organizations, including the New York Botanical Garden - will now go head-to-head in a citywide election to capture the hearts of New Yorkers.
WildflowerNYC is a campaign to restore the connection between New Yorkers and our wild flora - one vote at a time. As the campaign's manager, Marielle will discuss the project and how it complements other citywide directives such as 1% for Parks while providing a local lens for the global extinction crisis.
Marielle Anzelone, is an urban ecologist & founder of NYC Wildflower Week. Her work is regularly featured in the New York Times and on WNYC public radio.
