Building Pollinator Habitats as Integrated Pest Management

April 25, 2023


Integrated Pest Management (IPM) uses a variety of ecologically-minded techniques and approaches for the long-term management of pests. In this workshop we'll explore building beneficial insect habitats as an IPM strategy. Participants will learn what to plant, how to design their pollinator habitats, and how to maintain and troubleshoot the pollinator habitat within an IPM framework.

Facilitated by Makela Elvy, CCE Harvest NY. This workshop is part of the Spring '23 Workshops by GreenThumb.

This event is FREE! Pre-registration is optional.
