About the Hybrid Workshop
"Gardening with Insects: Attracting Insect Pollinators"Â explores the essential role of insect pollinators in our food systems and ecosystems. Attendees will learn how these insects support the reproduction of flowering plants, provide food for humans and wildlife, sustain healthy habitats, and contribute to a stable economy. With an estimated economic value of more than $34 billion annually in the United States and as many as 35% of global food crops reliant on their pollination, understanding and supporting pollinators is critical. This session offers practical insights to help gardeners attract and protect pollinators in their landscapes.
