John and Nancy own and operate The Farm Between

), 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.

Speaker Series (6) $45 / Reservations Recommended
