Pollinator Pathway: Take It to the Next Level (with Kathy Connolly)

Our yards, gardens, and communities already support birds, pollinators, and other wildlife—but we can support them at a higher level in the summer of 2022, and all summers, forever, by taking cues from nature’s own designs.

In this one-hour presentation, we'll talk about the full growing season, not just the colorful summer months. We’ll look at the importance of continuous bloom from March to November and how to use nature’s own design to improve habitat on any property, private or public. Learn about the importance of habitat connectivity, fallen leaves, water sources, and deadwood. Learn about high-value plants and where to buy them. An extensive handout and plant list are included with this talk. Take your pollinator support to the next level.
