SUMMARY:Creating Habitat for Native Pollinators Program followed by Pollinator Habitat Improvement Project Volunteer Work Day
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, October 22: Creating Habitat for Native Pollinators from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. followed by Pollinator Habitat Improvement Project Volunteer Work Day from 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.\n\nLearn how you can make your property more appealing and beneficial to native pollinators like bees\, flies\, beetles\, hummingbirds\, and moths. Pollinators are vital to our food system\, and with research showing significant declines in native species\, we can all help native pollinators by considering their habitat needs as we landscape our properties.\n\nExperts Wendy Scribner\, Natural Resources Field Specialist with UNH Cooperative Extension and Debra Marnich\, Stewardship Director of Chocorua Lake Conservancy\, will explore the importance of native pollinators\, share first-hand research experience and examples of how to create habitat for native pollinators. Participants will be able to see an example of a pollinator garden\, bee hotel and pollinator field\, and learn about the three-year collaboration that GMCG is began in May with the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC) that will focus on research and education about pollinators and supporting healthy pollinator habitat.\nFollowing the program\, participants are welcome to volunteer with the Pollinator Habitat Improvement Project at GMCG. Last summer GMCG began the three-year project to create a pollinator field to enhance wildlife habitat for pollinators. This 6\,650 ft² area will be temporarily covered with cardboard and roofing in three stages to prepare the planting area and kill existing plants. At the fall volunteer workday\, we will rake out the dead plant materials and seed a wildflower meadow with a diverse mix of plants that will bloom throughout the season. The program and work day will take place at Green Mountain Conservation Group’s Blue Heron House\, located at 236 Huntress Bridge Road in Effingham. Donations graciously accepted.\nREGISTER HERE\n \nNative plant and wildflower seed donations needed for GMCG’s pollinator field:  Last summer GMCG started a three-year project to create a 6\,650 ft² pollinator field to benefit and attract pollinators. This fall\, GMCG will be expanding the pollinator field during our Pollinator Habitat Improvement Project Volunteer Work Day on October 22nd from 12pm-2pm\, to enhance wildlife habitat for pollinators. From your garden to ours\, drop off seeds anytime before October 22nd at GMCG’s Blue Heron House located at 236 Huntress Bridge Road in Effingham. Help GMCG create a diverse mix of plants that will bloom throughout the season!
