Join us for a presentation with Master Gardener DMae Ceryes on how to best garden for supporting pollinators and landscaping for wildlife.

Join us on the first Tuesday of the month for our Master Gardener series, presented by U of M Extension Becker County Master Gardeners. Master Gardeners are University of Minnesota-trained volunteers whose mission is to educate the public about a variety of horticulture subjects using readily-available, up-to-date research-based information. The Master Gardener Program educational effort is designed to enhance the public’s quality of life and to promote good stewardship of the environment.

May's presentation will focus on supporting pollinators and landscaping for wildlife. You’ve probably heard about the lack of pollinators on the news. Usually we hear about honeybees, but they are not the only pollinators! We live in a web of life and how we manage our yards impacts many other species. 

This program is offered as part of Garden Talks, an event series offering assistance with common gardening topics. Other programs include:

Seed Starting Tips - Tuesday, April 1 at 12 p.m.
Nature Friendly Gardening - Tuesday, June 3 at 12 p.m.
