Free Fall Webinar: Fundamentals of Pollinator Gardening
Despite the popularity of pollinator gardens, best-practice advice can be confusing, overwhelming, and contradictory. In this talk, we’ll demystify the science behind pollinator gardening. We’ll cover the foundational tenets, then dive into areas of
recent research on hot topics such as cultivars (and nativars), nesting habitat, and leaving leaves—and what it all means for you and your garden. Whether you are a long-time aficionado or a newcomer curious what the hype is about, this talk offers clear,
evidence-based guidance for how to steward a garden that you find beautiful and which also makes a meaningful impact on the natural world.
