An abundance and diversity of wildlife are some of the best indicators of an ecologically well-designed landscape. By understanding how pollinators, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians select their habitats during each season of the year, we can design landscapes that effectively attract and support a diversity of wildlife. This presentation will provide practical methods for how to design your landscaping to attract and benefit a diversity of wildlife species.

Presenters: 

Presenters/bios: Matt Tarr, UNH Extension Wildlife Specialist.

Cost:
