Providing habitats for pollinators, birds and other essential wildlife.

In the first installment in the Andover Pollinator Pathway Speaker Series, hear from Amy Meltzer who will focus on the current biodiversity crisis; the evolutionary history among native plants, insects, birds and fungi, and how the interdependent relationships among diverse species are necessary for their survival.

She will show how growing native plants and using ecological landscape practices can simultaneously reverse biodiversity loss, increase resilience in our landscapes, and slow climate change - all while creating a beautiful garden!

Amy Meltzer is an active member of Grow Native Massachusetts and the Mass Pollinator Network, and is on the research team of Elders Climate Action.

The library has a 500-seat Zoom webinar license. This program has proven to be incredibly popular. If we reach capacity, please know that this program will be recorded and everyone registered will receive a link to the recording within 24 hours.

This program is sponsored by the Friends of Memorial Hall Library, Andover Seed Library, and the Andover Pollinator Pathway.
