Introducing the Hudson Valley Pollinator Action Guide - Rescheduled to October 28th

• Monday, October 28, 2024, 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Join us for a deep dive into the Hudson Valley Pollinator Action Guide, a project of Partners for Climate Action. Avalon Bunge, Ecological Restoration Projects Manager at PCA, will provide an overview and orientation to the Action Guide, your go-to resource for protecting threatened native pollinators using locally native plant species. This comprehensive online toolkit is designed to support gardeners and land managers at all scales in creating pollinator habitat, from small urban gardens to multi-acre wildflower meadows. The Action Guide covers a variety of techniques for site selection and preparation, plant selection and sourcing, and project installation and management; and includes an in-depth plant list targeted to support nearly 100 of the Hudson Valley's most vulnerable pollinators. We'll also discuss practical lessons learned from four "case study" plantings installed in 2023.

Avalon oversees PCA’s Ecological Restoration Grant program and manages PollinateHV, including the Hudson Valley Pollinator Action Guide. She also manages PCA's local ecotype seed propagation work with Hudson Valley Seed Company. Avalon received a BA in Geology from Colgate University and an MS in Ecosystem Restoration from the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry, and is currently pursuing a PhD in ecological restoration at Antioch University. Avalon lives in Columbia County with her husband, dog, and overflowing native plant collection.
