Come celebrate the City of Ottawa’s Pollinator Appreciation Day. Our theme is “Get Started,” encouraging you to create your own pollinator garden at home, at your local school, or in a community space.
A variety of local organizations will be there to share information and advice:
- Master Gardeners of Ottawa-Carleton
- Ecology Ottawa
- Canadian Wildlife Federation
- Ottawa Wildflower Seed Library
- TreeFest Ottawa
- Biodiversity Conservancy International/Pinhey Sand Dunes
- Monarch Teacher Network
- Bird Friendly Ottawa
- Plus many other WPP members who have created and now manage pollinator garden
Learn about the city’s recent by-law changes that now allow boulevard gardens – plantings near sidewalks and curbs. As well, researchers and entomologists will be there to answer your questions and provide information about pollinators and their habitat. https://wildpollinators-pollinisateurssauvages.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/RightofWay-brochure.pdf
