Wild About Jersey-Friendly Yards

July 7, 2020 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Join us for our new 2020 Jersey-Friendly Yards Webinar Series and learn how to create healthy habitat for wildlife in your yard.

The Jersey-Friendly Yards website is designed to guide you through the steps to a healthier, more wildlife-friendly yard. Loss of natural habitat throughout the world has led to serious declines in populations of pollinators, birds, and other wildlife. By gardening for wildlife in our yards, we can help reverse this trend.  As Dr. Doug Tallamy, author of Bringing Nature Home and Nature’s Best Hope says, “Garden as if life depended on it.”

About the Webinars

The Wild About Jersey-Friendly Yards webinars will be free and provided via WebEx Events. They will be every other Tuesday at 7:00 pm from July through September. The live sessions will be an hour long with time for questions. To join the webinars, you will need either a computer, tablet, or smartphone with speakers.

To see the complete list of webinars, visit the Wild About Jersey-Friendly Yards webpage.
