"Twiggy Pollinator Tower" Hands-On Workshop at the Beatrix Farrand Garden at Bellefield

Popular garden enthusiast Jessica Williams will teach this workshop using natural products. Insects are essential for a thriving ecosystem! This rustic garden accent provides an excellent home for them. You'll also attract more birds and amphibians while benefiting from fewer pest problems and better harvests. The four-foot-tall tower is created using twigs to form a teepee style frame with a wood base. Weaving willow or vines thru the structure will contain the wonderful variety of natural materials, including pinecones, bark strips and hollow stems of all sizes chosen for their ability to provide desirable housing. Ornamental vines can be grown up the sides. All materials and instruction are included; everyone will make their own unique tower to grace their garden. The bees, butterflies, and birds will thank you!
