We will have lots of hands-on activities to learn about our native pollinators including bees, butterflies, birds! Join us to build a bee, dissect a flower, take our pollinator quiz challenge, learn about the role of pollinators in our ecosystems, find out ways you can support pollinators in your own yards, look at the scales of a butterfly under a digital microscope, and more! The first half of the day will be a free rotation through activities. Then, we will head out to a nearby restored prairie where we will get our hands dirty planting a variety of wildflowers and bulbs. These flowers will bloom next spring providing nectar sources for pollinators in the butterfly flyway of the property. All tools will be supplied, and no experience is necessary!
