TwitterA Big Win for Pollinators
By Lorraine • Oct 6th, 2011 • Category: Designers, Gurus & Trends, Fresh Dirt, StyleThere’s a buzz in the air about local hero Clement Kent, a York University postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Biology in York’s Faculty of Science & Engineering and president of the Horticultural Societies of Parkdale and Toronto. Kent founded the Pollinator Garden Project two years ago to teach gardeners, members of the public and school children how to create and conserve habitat for pollinators. The success of this project has garnered him the Pollinator Advocate Award of Canada from the North American Pollinator Protection Campaign (NAPPC). Kent will accept his award at an international conference at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington in late October. Whoo-hoo!
