Pollinator friendly gardening (Online Course) – Kent Wildlife Trust

Pollinators need more than flowers. To encourage them in our gardens, we must cater for all stages of their lifecycle. This interactive course will explain how – in simple easy to follow steps.  Time is included for group discussion

The session will start with a power point presentation followed by a Q & A session. Participant numbers will be restricted to a maximum of 15 to enable time for all participants to take part comfortably.

Points covered:

• Types of pollinators & their lifecycles
• Habitat requirements during each part of the life cycle
• The basic principle of pollinator-friendly gardening

By the end of the course it is expected that you will:

• Understand which animals are the main pollinators in the UK & their lifecycles
• Understand what these animals need during the various stages of their lifecycle
• Understand how we can cater for these needs in our gardens
