Wildlife in Your Backyard

Wildlife in Your Backyard?!

The Sudbury Garden Club invites you to attend our Wildlife in Your Backyard program at 9:45 a.m. on Wednesday, October 10^th at the Goodnow Library on Concord Road. 

Learn more about some of the common wildlife living in residential areas and find out how to design your yard to be attractive to wildlife as well as how you might prevent conflicts with wildlife.  Marion Larson oversees the Information and Education staff for the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (Mass Wildlife).  Fact sheets and information on plantings for wildlife will be provided.  Marion has worked for Mass Wildlife since 1991, first as a Wildlife Educator, then as the agency Outreach Coordinator before becoming Chief in 2012. 

Prior to working for Mass Wildlife, Marion was a state Environmental Police Officer (game warden) in northern Middlesex and Worcester counties.  She has a degree in Environmental Interpretation for the University of Vermont and is an avid gardener.

Refreshments will be served prior to the program.  The public is welcome to attend free of charge.
