Creating a Backyard Pollinator Haven with Dr. Erin Zagadailov
Erin will provide simple tips and tricks that you can implement in your own home garden to attract pollinators and promote pollinator conservation. She will provide an overview of her favorite pollinator-friendly perennials and garden must-haves for growing in Zones 4/5. After her talk, she’ll have locally grown cut tulip bouquets for sale.
Bio: Dr. Erin Zagadailov is the founder and creator of Lady Grantham Apiary, a bees-first flower farm in Grantham, NH, with a mission to promote pollinator conservation and locally grown flowers. Taking a sabbatical from biotech, she is a pharmacist and health economist with expertise in developing and commercializing treatments for oncology and rare diseases. Her research has been published in the New England Journal of Medicine, The Lancet, and other scientific journals. In her spare time, Erin volunteers with the New Hampshire Women’s Foundation.
