When is something happening?

July 10th

Friend, Foe or Escargot: Sex and Death in the Garden - How do you keep pests from infiltrating the garden and turning it into a naked jungle? A garden attracts insects by the dozens, from aphids to slugs, sawflies to tiger bee flies. Some are beneficial, while others are not, so before you wage war on them, take another look at the life in your garden. The Swansea Public Library is pleased to present Pam Gilpin, expert gardener who will talk about bugs in the garden on Wednesday July 10 at 6:30PM in the Reference Room.

Although it may appear as though pests are devouring your plants, Pam Gilpin will help you understand that another wave of insects may be coming to the rescue. Don’t reach for the spray bottle. This talk will help you tell the good guys from the bad guys and help you understand how bugs live and die and work to create a happy, healthy, ecofriendly garden space.
Sign up today for this free workshop. It is open to the public and will take place in the Library Reference Room. For more information, contact the library at 508-674-9609 or visit our website at www.swansealibrary.org
