This program will discuss planting options for attracting and aiding migratory species and late-season pollinators. It is very important for our insect species to get enough food in order to make it through the Winter, so what we plant and cultivate can help them reach this goal. Natural history and plant attributes will be presented. Goldenrods, asters and other late Summer/Fall species will be featured, as well as helpful identification information.
