Lunch with the Masters | Gardening for Bats

Bats need our help now more than ever! A recent report determined that over 50% of our native bats are considered at risk.  Besides adding diversity and flair to local wildlife, our bats consume countless pest insects every single night. These nocturnal neighbors need our help now more than ever. Join Bat Conservation International’s Community Engagement Manager Erin Cord as she talks about our local bats, the threats they face, and how you can help them right in the comfort of your own backyard!

Erin Cord is the Community Partnerships Manager at Bat Conservation International (BCI) and proudly works with communities in ways that benefit both bats and people. She is a wildlife biologist by trade but pivoted to more of an engagement/education role after graduate school. Erin adores all things bats, plants, and bugs and has worked at BCI since 2019.
