Planting a Wildlife Friendly Garden (Queens County)
This course will introduce the "do's and don'ts" of creating a wildlife friendly garden. Topics will include native plants that do well in a garden setting, nonnative and invasive plants and their impact on wildlife, and helpful additions you can include in your garden to further attract pollinators, birds and other beneficial wildlife. This course will start with an indoor presentation, followed by a walk through a native pollinator garden in the works.
