Enhancing Pollinator Habitats: Upcoming Education Series

October 31, 2025 - 05:45

The Door County Master Gardener program is set to host an informative session as part of its November Growing Together education series. On Monday, November 3, from 1:30 to 3:00 PM, the focus will be on “Bee Lawns: Using Your Lawn to Provide Food for Pollinators.” This event aims to educate participants on the importance of creating bee-friendly environments in their own backyards.

As pollinators face numerous challenges, including habitat loss and pesticide exposure, the session will explore practical strategies for transforming traditional lawns into thriving habitats for bees and other beneficial insects. Attendees will learn about various flowering plants that can be incorporated into their lawns, as well as maintenance practices that promote biodiversity.

This educational opportunity is perfect for gardening enthusiasts and anyone interested in supporting local ecosystems. The Master Gardener program encourages community members to attend and gain valuable insights into sustainable gardening practices that benefit both pollinators and the environment.
