Grow A Pollinator Garden Webinar

Pollinator Gardens

It’s estimated one in every three bits of food we eat can be attributed to pollinating insects. Pollinators are critical to our food supply and the ecological of our gardens and landscapes. Pollinator gardening has become very popular with many home gardeners, schools and municipal gardens growing plants that are pollinator-friendly.

But pollinator gardening is more than just growing a few sunflowers or asters for bees and Monarch butterflies. In this webinar, I’ll talk about the essential ingredients to a successful pollinator garden beyond the plants. I’ll chat about the habitat, water, shelter and best gardening practices for pollinators and highlight pollinators beyond just honey bees. Then, I’ll discuss the plants that are best for pollinators, with emphasis on the open pollinated varieties.
