Gardening Workshop: Pollinator-Friendly Gardens

United States

The popular Oregon State University Extension Gardening Lecture Series returns! OSU assistant professor Nicole Sanchez is back to educate you on more gardening topics this summer.

Both the downtown Klamath County Library and the South Suburban Branch Library are hosting a session, so feel free to choose the time slot that best fits your schedule! Our first workshop for the season is all about pollinator-friendly gardening.

  • Tuesday, June 20th at noon
    • Hosted at the South Suburban Branch Library - 3625 Summers Lane
  • Thursday, June 22nd at 6 pm
    • Hosted at the downtown Klamath County Library - 126 South Third Street

Promoting pollinators in the garden provides so much benefit – for the garden, for the gardener, and for all the creatures that use garden spaces for food and refuge. Using a variety of OSU’s pollinator resources, you’ll learn how to create pollinator habitat in your garden, and what garden practices make your space a pollinator haven. We’ll cover plant choices, garden maintenance, pesticide practices, and much more.

Sanchez has worked in the horticulture industry for over 30 years. She runs the Klamath County Master Gardener Program at the OSU Klamath Basin Research and Extension Center, and has worked extensively with both home gardeners and commercial produce growers.
