Would you like your yard to benefit native wildlife and pollinators? Have you considered converting a portion of your property to a mini meadow or a larger prairie plot but are not quite sure where to start? This program is for you! We will discuss the challenges and benefits of creating these vibrant pollinator habitats.

The program will start with a presentation at the James Bradley Center. The first portion will focus on small backyard prairie. The second part will feature specialists from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service who will share different strategies for establishing larger prairie plots, provide an overview of the resources and funding available. This indoor portion will be followed with an outdoor tour to compare a small pocket prairie and the large prairies at Infirmary Mound Park. Join us for this fun and interactive class! Register by July 20th. Meet at James Bradley Center. The alternate date will be August 15th.
