The first part of our presentation reviews some pollinator basics. Next\, our presenter will discuss what pollinator s need and are looking for when choosing where to rest\, eat\, or lay thei r eggs--in other words &ldquo\;Habitat&rdquo\;! \; We will learn about the importance of a habitat\, what it is\, and how to create and maintain some inviting habitats for pollinators just about anywhere at all! \; Specifically\, the presentation illustrates successful pollinator habitat s created in places as different as suburban gardens to apartment decks\, and small urban yards and patios to parking lot &ldquo\;hell strips.&rdquo \; \; \;
