“Landscape Design for Pollinators” by Jane Sorensen
Monday, Dec 11 from 6-8pm
East Burke Community Library, 368 VT Route 114, East Burke, VT

Jane Sorensen, co-owner of River Berry Farm in Fairfax, VT, Northeast Pollinator Plants owner, landscape architect, and UVM Adjunct will be the guest speaker. “As we domesticate the landscape, it is up to us domesticators to create habitat for pollinators in our own landscapes. Learn about what makes a good pollinator habitat and the various forms they can take, from meadows to formal gardens.” Jane will share her extensive list of habitat plants and suggest where you can find seeds, plants, and more information to empower you to enhance your pollinator landscape.

BIO: Jane Sorensen is passionate about pollinator habitat enhancement and loves any opportunity to spread the word. She is a full-time farmer of organic fruit and vegetables in Fairfax, VT, where she grows and sells native plants for pollinators on farm and through her on-line nursery, Northeast Pollinator Plants. Jane teaches one course at UVM, Landscape Design for Pollinators, and is a retired landscape architect with 14 years’ experience.

Janes’ presentation is sponsored by the UVM Ext. Master Gardeners-NEK Chapter. This presentation is open to the public. Suggested donation $5.
