Beneficial Insects: Ecological Pest Control 101 with Laura Nicoletti
When it comes to gardening, insects aren't always pests. In fact, some insects, called "beneficials," are actually a boon to gardeners. They prey on the pesky insects that gardeners don't want, and they help to pollinate flowers and maintain soil health. This workshop will focus on the world of insects and their importance for watershed ecology, healthy gardens and the natural world. Topics covered will include the benefits of conservation biological control — a technique for integrating beneficial insects for natural pest control —  and enhancing garden habitats with the right plant selection to attract beneficial insects.

Botanist Laura Nicoletti is the founder of the sustainable garden design company For A Greener Living, located in Mill Valley, California. A Bay-Friendly Qualified Landscape Professional, she loves to teach her clients how to become stewards of the environment around them, cultivating sustainable gardens. She is also a Marin County Master Gardener, and member of the Marin Master Gardeners Pruning Guild. She earned a certificate in Sustainable Landscaping from Sonoma State University and received her Permaculture Design Certification from the Regenerative Design Institute in Bolinas, CA.   A former chef and caterer, Laura is a native of Venice, Italy, and loves to use fresh ingredients from her edible garden in her cooking.
