Nature Rx: Attracting Pollinators in Your Garden

The Conservancy for Cuyahoga Valley National Park, in partnership with Summit County Master Gardeners, presents Attracting Pollinators to Your Garden for their Nature Rx program.

Master Gardeners Mindy Costigan-McCartney, Denise Gibson, and Diane Horvatter will describe who our pollinators are, what plants attract them, where and when to grow these plants and most importantly, why this is important to our ecosystem.

They will share examples of gardens with pollinator plants, and the health and well-being benefits that follow. Whether you want to start a garden to attract pollinators or add pollinators to an existing garden, come prepared to learn concrete ways to get started this growing season.
