Pollinators like butterflies, hummingbirds, native bees, and honey bees are essential to our ecosystems—and they need our help!This lively presentation dives into the fun of planting beautiful, nectar-rich flowers, the ease of simple steps like reducing sprays and mowing less, and the rewarding challenge of shifting attitudes about weeds and wild spaces.
Whether you’re a seasoned gardener, a renter, or simply curious about supporting nature, this talk will leave you inspired and ready to create a buzz in your community. After all, in nature, “diversity is the key to stability,” and “the more you know, the less you mow!”
Speaker — Jamie Beyer, Lifetime Master Gardener; President of Central Iowa Beekeepers Association; Recipient of the Spencer Award from Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture
