Program Description

Details

Wildlife and pollinators are beautiful, colorful, diverse and fun to watch. Learn how to attract birds, bees, butterflies and other small animals to your landscape, and how you can create a beautiful wildlife garden. Learn how to create the right conditions and grow the ideal plants to make your garden a haven for Florida's many wonderful creatures you might want to attract.  Wildlife/pollinator gardens are a vibrant way you can help protect dwindling populations of some wildlife and create habitat they will thrive in.
