Join the Hackney Buzzline to learn about the many local pollinators, their favourite plants and how to create habitats for them.
Want to make your garden a magnet for bees, hoverflies and butterflies? Join the Hackney Buzzline team for a hands-on morning designed for anyone who grows — whether you tend a community plot, an allotment, a balcony or a back garden.
We'll share what we've learned from monitoring pollinators across Hackney, including which species are active locally and, crucially, which plants they actually visit. You'll come away with practical planting ideas you can put into the ground this season — from spring-to-autumn flowering schemes to simple habitat features that make a real difference.
The session will cover:
How to choose pollinator-friendly plants that suit Hackney's growing conditions. Which local pollinator species to look out for — and what they need from your garden. Easy ways to create nesting and sheltering habitat alongside your planting.
No prior experience with pollinators or wildlife recording needed — just bring your curiosity and your gardening questions. This is an in person event.
