Gardening For Bats Launch Event

Online, Zoom
Description
We are delighted to launch our exciting new project: Gardening for Bats - supporting bats in your own backyard!
The project came from a question we are often asked by members of the public ‘What can I do for bats?’
The truth is, there is a lot anyone with an outdoor space can easily do for bats. With this project, we aim to:
- Create resources for gardeners to help them make bat and wildlife-friendly decisions when gardening.
- For garden centres – provide signage, printed materials and resources to help your customers choose bat friendly trees, hedging and herbaceous perennials, as well as ponds and other features.
- For Irish plant nurseries - provide ‘I’m bat friendly’ labelling for Irish grown, native hedging and tree stock, as well as labels for herbaceous perennials that support nocturnal pollinators.
