Come to a Zoom presentation on Thursday to learn about the diversity of native pollinators in Vermont and how you can help protect these important insects right here in Addison County! Here is the link to join.
The Pollinator Pathway of Addison County welcomes Emily May, a Pollinator Conservation Specialist at the Xerces Society, who will speak about the ecology of our local pollinators and how to make yards and gardens a sanctuary for native bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects. Why is connected habitat important? What native plants are most attractive to pollinators? How can you provide for and protect pollinators all season long? Join us for the online presentation and Q&A.
Emily May received an M.S. in Entomology and Ecology/Evolutionary Biology from Michigan State University, and has studied habitat restoration, bee nesting habits, specialty crop pollination, and the effects of pest management practices on wild bee communities. Her work since 2015 has focused on supporting pollinators through habitat creation and mitigating pesticide risk to bees and other beneficial insects.
This presentation is the second of a continuing series of talks sponsored by the Pollinator Pathway of Addison County. We will be providing more ways to connect with us in the coming weeks as we work to create a pollinator pathway in our homes, gardens, farms, landscapes, and public lands.
P.S. We regret that due to a tech problem, many people had trouble getting access to our March 1 presentation. We believe we have rectified that error and hope you will attend this new presentation. If you were unable to get access to Donna Merrill's presentation you can email us at pollinatorpathway.addisoncty@gmail.com to get a link to a recording of that event.
