Gardeners play a vital role in the development and conservation of habitat that benefits pollinators, including bees, birds, and butterflies. This program will focus on some of the most common pollinators, including their fascinating biology and life histories. Participants will also learn practical steps everyone can take to create or enhance habitat, including plant selection and garden themes, and simple design elements. By creating a patchwork of garden spaces that provide food and shelter for pollinators, gardeners can positively impact the health and survival of these important creatures.

Speaker: Denise Ellsworth, Program Director - Pollinator Education
