UVM Extension Master Gardener, Marijke Niles, the owner of Marijke's Perennial Gardens Plus in Starksboro to speak at 3:00, Sunday, June 2nd Holley Hall, 1 South Street, Bristol. The title of the talk, Create Your Own Pollinator Gardens: One Step at a Time.
Marijke will share tips and tricks for creating biodiverse habitat for pollinators using pesticide-free native plants. Native plants provide nectar and pollen for the pollinators who are busy searching for food and water on the landscape during each of three blooming seasons.
A guided garden tour will immediately follow, lead by members of Bristol Co-Housing's Sustainability Committee. The Bristol Co-Housing property is an easy two-minute walk from Holley Hall.
