Planting for Pollinators: A Native Plant Gardening Class

  • Broccolo Garden Center 2755 Penfield Road Fairport, NY, 14450 United States (map)

Are you ready for a backyard makeover? Want to cut down on lawn mowing and attract more birds, butterflies and bees?

A yard with nothing but grass is alive, but not necessarily healthy or eco-friendly. Laurie Broccolo of Broccolo Garden Center will show you how to achieve a more diverse and pollinator-friendly yard by reducing lawn area and adding native trees, plants, flowers and groundcovers.

Learn how to create a “no-mow” space that will attract beneficial insects and birds.

After a 45-minute interactive presentation, we will walk around the garden center to view examples of these eco-friendly backyard solutions.

 Space is limited, so please register for this event below and dress for the weather.

Note: 10% of all purchases made on June 12 will be donated to Genesee Land Trust.
