Native Plant Events

Your garden can be a refuge of biodiversity. It houses an astounding number of insects and their kin. Michael Raupp will explain how insects and their relatives help make the world go around by providing important ecosystem services, linking members of food webs, pollinating plants, recycling organic matter, and providing biological control. You will leave with a new appreciation for the important roles insects play in the ecology of your garden and learn how you can build biodiversity in your own backyard.
