Not every insect in your garden is out to get your plants — some of them are actually working for you. Join Master Gardener Candace Simpson to discover the beneficial insects already patrolling your garden, learn how to tell them apart from the pests they’re helping control, and pick up simple, sustainable ways to invite more of them in. It’s a small shift in perspective that can make a big difference: garden with nature, not against it. Feel free to bring a sample insect or insect-damaged plant material for identification (in a sealed ziplock bag, please).
