There are many benefits to pollinator gardening that include biodiversity, stormwater management and creating a space where bees can safely continue to maintain our ecosystem. In this class, we'll go over native plants to consider for Houston, garden maintenance, and design.
This class is part of a series. Any participant is welcome to drop in on any class. During the 2nd half of class, we may work in local gardens, so come dressed for gardening if you'd like to join us!
