SGS: Beneficial Bugs in Your Garden

Did you know that less than 1% of insect species are considered pests? That leaves a lot of room for insects that we can learn to love, like the beneficial bugs in your garden! These insects can control pests, reduce (or eliminate) the need for pesticides, and make your garden healthier and more sustainable. Join us as we learn about the benefits of key insect groups, how to identify them, and how you can attract them to your yard.
This program takes place in-person at Mt. Cuba Center Saturday, April 5, 2025.
About the Instructor:
Samantha Nestory is the engagement manager at Stoneleigh: A Natural Garden in Villanova, PA. She holds ecology and entomology degrees from the University of Delaware and is passionate about ecological gardening, native plants, and insect conservation.
