8 things you can do to create more insect-friendly habitat in your own garden! Learn:

- who’s living in your perennial stems
- how to attract more “tickle bees” to your landscape, and
- how to control mosquitoes in your pond (without fish!)
Amy Campion grew up in Minnesota, but she became a gardener in the Cincinnati area, where she worked at a wholesale nursery for 16 years. In 2013, she moved to Portland, Oregon, and in 2017, Amy co-authored Gardening in the Pacific Northwest: The Complete Homeowner’s Guide.
