Deer Resistant Gardening with Native Plants

One of the most common and frustrating problems faced by New Jersey gardeners is the ever-growing population of white-tailed deer that sail through our yards, frequently in large herds, decimating our carefully tended landscapes. 

In this presentation, garden designer and consultant Nisha Khanna will discuss various strategies for gardening in deer-infested areas, along with practical tips and advice on different types of products that can be used to exclude, deter and repel the invaders. She will also cover New Jersey native plants that are resistant to deer-browsing.

Nisha Khanna is a certified landscape designer and garden coach/consultant who runs her business "Growing Gardens" in Edison, NJ. She has been designing residential gardens for 10 years, and is also the estate manager for a large private garden. She practices and teaches sustainable and organic land care practices, and is obsessed with all things related to plants and trees, and birds and bees.
