As part of Sheridan’s biodiversity initiative, we are excited to offer the second workshop on the conservation of pollinators this fall.
At the Oakville Digs Pollinators Workshop, we will have native plant experts leading the group on a nature walk around campus while talking about the importance of local biodiversity, planting native plants at urban sites, and the identification of different species that have been planted at the Medicine Wheel Garden and wildflower gardens at the Trafalgar Campus. Participants will also learn about online resources to establish their own native gardens and find native species in nurseries.
Event Details:
- Date: Thursday, October 11
- Time: 5 p.m. – 7 p.m.
- Location: Trafalgar Campus, G302
Admission is free and all are welcome to join! If you are planning to attend, please register by clicking here.
This is the second of two workshops on pollinator conservation that make up the three components of the Wildflower and Pollinator Protection and Enhancement Program created by the Office for Sustainability and supported by the TD Friends of the Environment Foundation. This workshop was offered in collaboration with our partners including Oakvillegreen Conservation Association, Carolinian Canada and WWF.
The wildflower community planting event we offered in June was another component of the Wildflower and Pollinator Protection and Enhancement Program. We shared what we accomplished here.
