In a Patch of Goldenrod
Event Navigation
Goldenrods abound in northeast Minnesota. This species-rich family of native plant provide a good amount of nectar for a wide range of pollinators. Goldenrods are both the home for and the meeting location for a wide range of critters. In this presentation, Larry Weber will discuss the insects and spiders found while walking in patches of goldenrods in late summer. Weber’s book, In a Patch of Goldenrod, will be signed and available for purchase.
The presentation will take place in the Lois King Education Center at the Friends of Sax-Zim Bog Welcome Center.
Weber is an accomplished naturalist, writer and educator in northern Minnesota. He contributes a weekly column in the Duluth News Tribune and has written a number of books on topics from phenology to spiders.
