Pollinator Workshop: Native Plants and Pollinator Habitats in Farms and Gardens

March 27, 2019 @ 9:00 am - 12:30 pm

Formerly titled Designing and Planting for Pollinators Workshop, we re-named it Native Plants and Pollinator Habitats in Farms and Gardens to highlight the connection between native plants, pollinator habitat (in our yards and on farms) and food security. Come learn how to create, maintain and restore habitat to benefit pollinators.

Free for NOFA (Northeast Organic Farmers Assoc.) members and NOFA Accredited Organic Land Care Professionals (AOLCP’s); $15 for non-members. Space is limited, REGISTRATION is required.

As gardeners and land care professionals, our practices and plant choices can have a huge beneficial effect – or not – on pollinators. Learn how to design, plant and maintain organic landscapes that support the entire life cycle of bees and other pollinators. This will be a plant-centered habitat creation presentation, not a primer on insect identification. We will dig deep, immerse ourselves in inspiring images and have plenty of time for Q&A in this half day workshop and slide presentation.
