Upcoming Programs

Who Works with Pollinators? A Biologist!
Saturday, April 12
Pollinators like bees, butterflies, birds, and even bats are essential for thriving ecosystems, but they need more than flowers to survive. Native shrubs and trees support these creatures by providing critical nectar, pollen, and shelter. Learn how often-overlooked, native woody plants create a more robust pollinator garden and foster deep connections between plants and their pollinators.
