It will be presented by Joe Scheidler, a retired landscaper who owned Spring Creek Nursery in Logansport.

Scheidler will speak about his three years of experience with solar power, explaining how he is able to use solar power to generate 100 percent of his electricity.

He will also demonstrate how to create a backyard habitat to benefit the environment.

Future public education series will include information on how to hybridize and the making of garden troughs.
