Hello, MOU Folks: Just noted Lindy Whyte's timely message on MOUNet about neonicotinoid pesticides and thought other subscribers might be interested in St. Paul Audubon's upcoming workshop on these chemicals, which pose a threat to pollinators and possibly birds, too.
If you could post this to the listserv, that would be much appreciated. All the best, Val Cunningham St. Paul Audubon Society Even if you don’t use chemicals in your garden, you still could be harming bees, butterflies and other living things. Learn more about the alarming spread of “pre-poisoned” plants in the garden business and what you can do to combat this trend. Bee experts and landscapers will discuss how to make sure you have a healthy backyard. Saturday, April 5, 9 a.m. to noon Campus Center (free parking nearby), Macalester College, St. Paul This workshop is free and open to the public.
