Pollinators — like bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies – are essential to healthy, vibrant ecosystems. However, pollinators are finding sources of food harder to find.
To help our pollinator friends in Abbotsford, join us at 11 am on March 2 at the Abbotsford campus bus loop (between A and G building) to hear instructors Sandra Gillespie and Alan Reid discuss plant biodiversity, and native pollinators and what they need. Learn about our plans to create a pollinator garden on campus and what you can do to support pollinators in your own gardens.
To help our pollinator friends in Chilliwack, bring your lunch and learn more about pollinator gardens by touring the garden in the Agriculture outdoor classroom. Join Agriculture professors Renee Prasad and Jennifer Ryan, from 12 pm to 1 pm on March 2, as they highlight the various plants in the garden and discuss their care and maintenance. We will also highlight the non-plant elements of a pollinator/wildlife garden.
*Please note that masks will be required at all times during this event.
