Design your Pollinator Garden:

NEW VIDEO CLASS!

“Create a Sunny Pollinator Garden”

A one hour video
for people who want to use straight species native plants of the Chesapeake region
to create a pollinator garden at home.

We’ll actually walk through a quick design process, so that you can end this class with

  • a useful design sketch of your pollinator garden

  • confidence that you have selected the right plants

  • a shopping list to help you get exactly the right plants and put them in the ground

Enough collecting of long plant lists and feeling overwhelmed! Let’s get this done—it’s not so overwhelming when we do it together.

I was delighted with the tools and techniques Chris provided in just an hour-long class. I feel like I’m on my way to picking the right flowering perennials that will look good together in my sunny garden bed. All this while sticking with the native plants that will help pollinators thrive.
