Planting for Wildlife Workshop

  • Oceana Conservation District 1064 Industrial Park Drive Shelby, MI 49455 (map)

If you are interested in attracting wildlife and providing habitat for birds, butterflies, bees, and/or deer, whether you have one acre or 80, you will want to join Oceana Conservation District Forester Rod Denning and Executive Director Suzie Knoll who will share their expertise on managing landscapes for wildlife. Focusing on woodland plantings, Rod Denning will provide tree and shrub species recommendations according to various habitat and soil types and will share planting guidelines that will aid in the success of your planting. Focusing on prairie and grassland plantings, Suzie Knoll will present information on creating habitat for pollinators and birds, sharing species recommendations, site prep and planting guidelines, and maintenance expectations.

The information provided will help you choose the best species for your site and soil conditions just ahead of the District’s Tree/Shrub Seedling Sale in April and the Native Plant Sale in May.
