 Ever wonder how cleaning up your yard and garden in autumn affects local wildlife habitat?  Ecologist Nicole Shutt will provide tips to help you provide habitat for native wildlife year-round, from butterflies, bees, and other beneficial invertebrates, to birds, reptiles, amphibians, and mammals, all the while keeping your grounds beautiful and controlling diseases and pests.  Then you and your family can explore some of the invertebrate diversity we have in the Northwoods, and celebrate the awesome habitat your yard and garden can be for wildlife neighbors large and small.There will be ample time for questions and answers.
