This program will include an overview of insect population declines and resulting biodiversity losses and the factors linked to these declines, especially the role pesticide use plays. We will look at some of the most commonly used lawn and garden pesticides and their effects on soil health, water quality, insect life, wildlife, and human health. There will be a special focus on neonicotinoid pesticides and their effects on pollinator and bird populations. We will consider data showing which pesticides are showing up in Connecticut rivers and how changing the way we manage our yards as well as town and state property can help better protect water quality, biodiversity, and human health.

F24/07
Fallen leaves, decaying logs, and gone-by flowers nurture overwintering birds, pollinators, fireflies, turtles, and other wildlife. But . . . it's all so messy! How can we manage the practical and aesthetic concerns that arise when we keep autumn materials on home or community properties? We'll discuss the life-giving importance of winter habitat for insects, birds, and other wildlife. Kathy will share her own experiments with leaving leaves and saving stems. Learn how careful plant selection, care, timing, and good design can help. An extensive reference document accompanies this two-hour talk.

Including native plants in your garden is a great way to help pollinators. Expand your native plantings inexpensively by growing them yourself from seed. We will discover the germination requirements for different kinds of seeds, and then plant and bring home a plastic milk jug filled with a seed selection to stratify over the winter. Proper after care will be discussed. Bring a clear (translucent), one-gallon milk or water jug; we will supply the soil and seeds.
