What you can do to help our pollinators?
Native pollinators are very important for ecosystems and food production. With the growing concern about the decline in insect abundance, now is a good time support pollinators in our suburbs. Karen Thomas, Regional Agriculture Facilitator for the Port Phillip and Westernport Catchment Management Authority (PPWCMA), will explore the actions we can take as gardeners to boost pollinator biodiversity and keep plants fruiting and setting seed. If you’ve got a veggie patch, fruit trees or just love biodiversity, supporting insects is a worthwhile goal. All participants will receive an insect attracting plant to take home.
