Spiders in the Garden

March 5, 2025 at 7:30 pm

Location: Friends Meeting House, Harrogate

Price - £3, free to members

Gardening for wildlife has become a major topic in recent years but there is still an emphasis on attracting bees and butterflies. Spiders are equally important. Geoff will explain some of the biology, and often bizarre lifestyles, of a selection of the common spiders to be found in Yorkshire gardens, and how to encourage them to take up residence.

Event Organiser: Kerry Morrison

Presenter: Geoff Oxford
