Andover Pollinator Pathway Speaker Series featuring Gretel Anspach.

This presentation focuses on the native plants of New England. Plants native to our region are easier to maintain, better able to withstand New England weather and may offer better resistance to deer and rabbits. The trees, shrubs, and perennials that evolved here can grow here with much less input from you.

Reduce your workload while creating a paradise for the native birds and pollinators.

Gretel Anspach is a retired systems engineer for Raytheon. She is a trustee of Massachusetts Horticultural Society and a lifetime master gardener with MMGA. Gretel enjoys the elements of science
& math involved in horticulture. For nine years she oversaw the Food Pantry Garden at Raytheon. In 2016 she won the MMGA Lifetime Achievement award. Gretel has gone on to establish and maintain a
20,000 square foot food production garden that has provided fresh produce to the Marlboro and Maynard Food Pantries for the last twelve years.

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