If you're spending most of your time at home these days, you're probably among the many people who are looking to improve their landscaping, yard, or garden. We've had a great deal of interest from listeners about planting and growing during quarantine.
This hour, we revisit that theme, and we take a particularly close look at building native gardens for pollinators. The experts answer our questions and yours about the role of pollinators, the dos and don’ts of creating a garden that supports them, and we talk about the recent buzz surrounding the Asian giant hornet (that’s the only bee pun for the hour, we promise). Our guests:
- Matt Kelly, independent journalist, and creator and editor of The Bee Report
- Molly Jacobson, graduate student in conservation biology at SUNY ESF
- Laurie Broccolo, CEO of Broccolo Tree & Lawn Care
