LABS: Neko Case and Rebecca McMackin on Ecological Horticulture

Recorded live at Boston’s Museum of Science on July 31, 2025.

Visionary singer-songwriter Neko Case joins ecological horticulturist and Brooklyn Bridge Park garden designer Rebecca McMackin for a wide-ranging conversation about land stewardship, biodiversity, and the joys of gardening. From Neko’s epic Vermont garden to Rebecca’s work creating pollinator-friendly urban habitats, the two share practical advice for beginning and urban gardeners alike, discuss the symbiosis between plants and wildlife, and explore how cultivating green spaces can nurture both ecosystems and the human spirit.
