Good Garden Talks: Bird Friendly Gardens

This evening program explores how to attract and support birds through thoughtful garden design. Working alongside Let's Grow Akron and OSU Extension, instructors will guide you through selecting plants that provide food for birds throughout the year. You'll also discover ways to modify your garden's features to make winter bird watching more rewarding. The session runs from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. and takes place in the West Room at the lodge. This talk welcomes adults, teens, and seniors who want to create a more bird-friendly outdoor space. Whether you're an experienced gardener or just starting out, you'll take away practical ideas for your own yard.
