BREWSTER, MA ­ As part of the Gardening for Life 
Speaker Series, the Friends of the Cape Cod 
Museum of Natural History and Association to 
Preserve Cape Cod present Partnering with 
Pollinators in the Working Landscape with John 
and Nancy Hayden Sunday, February 28, 2016 at 1pm 
at CCMNH 869 Main St. /Rte. 6A in Brewster.

John and Nancy own and operate The Farm Between 
(<http://www.thefarmbetween.com>www.thefarmbetween.com 
), an organic fruit nursery and fruit farm in 
Jeffersonville VT, where they practice ecological 
regenerative agriculture. Maintaining a 
pollinator sanctuary with floral, nesting, and 
overwintering habitat is a high priority on their 
farm. John has degrees in ecology and entomology 
and has worked as a researcher, extension agent, 
consultant, educator and organic grower for over 
thirty years. Nancy is a writer, artist, and 
retired environmental engineering professor. She 
has degrees in ecology, engineering, art, and 
writing. The farm and nature are inspiration for 
much of her creative work 
(<http://www.northwindarts.com>www.northwindarts.com).

The presentation will introduce the common insect 
pollinators and issues facing them including 
pesticide toxicity, loss of floral resources and 
habitat, disease and parasites. The Haydens 
recognize and treat pollinators as key partners 
in their farm business. They will share what they 
are currently doing on their farm to enhance 
native bee populations with ideas on what you can do on your land.

General Admission is $10 per person / Entire 
Speaker Series (6) $45 / Reservations Recommended
APCC Members $5 / Tickets available online at www.ccmnh.org

The Gardening for Life Speaker Series is
