Spend a beautiful summer day with us learning from Dr. Stacy Philpott about all the wonderful beneficial insects in your garden!
This workshop will begin with a lecture and Q&A about beneficial insects in gardens local to Santa Cruz. We will view and discuss some of the more common pollinators and predators of pest insects. Stacy will also present some of the findings of her team’s research investigating how certain garden management practices may promote the abundance and diversity of beneficials, or may change their behaviors.
For those joining us in person, we will take a walk from the Hay Barn to the UCSC Farm and test our insect identification and collection skills!
Pre-registration is required for this workshop. Presented by the Friends of the UCSC Farm & Garden. Learn more about becoming a member and sign up at https://agroecology.ucsc.edu/get-involved/join-the-friends/index.html.
