Lecture: People Planning for Pollinators
Crystal Anderson | Wildlife Biologist and Ph.D. student | Clemson University’s James C. Kennedy Waterfowl and Wetlands Conservation Center

Crystal’s incredible research has so many insights to share about community, native plants, and pollinators across our coastal landscapes. She will share her experience transforming a community garden into a learning space, strengthening food security, and inspiring people of all ages to notice and support pollinators. Her research also investigates the impacts of climate on pollinator ranges and highlights conservation planning considerations for the saltmarsh ecotone.
