Yard & Garden Lecture Series 2026

Backyard Sanctuaries: Gardening for Birds and Biodiversity

Steve Hampton

When it comes to supporting wildlife habitat in the places we live, there are both opportunities and challenges. Avid birder and author Steve Hampton will walk attendees through how to attract a wide diversity of species by creating edge habitat in backyards, all the while navigating a variety of urban hazards and invasive species.

Get inspired with landscaping and gardening insights, connecting with our forests, water conservation, birding, and pest management.
