Horticulture Corner: Creating Wildflower Habitats

Join Emily Bell of the Florida Wildflower Foundation to learn how to create habitat for native pollinators, birds and other wildlife in your own landscape with native plants. Find out how you can support local biodiversity, reduce the need for fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides, and conserve water resources, all while providing food for local wildlife.

Emily Bell joined the Florida Wildflower Foundation in 2022 as its communications coordinator.

She has more than a decade of experience with environmental outreach, planning, and network building.
