MASTER GARDENER PROGRAM — Workshops & Events
You’ve likely heard about the recent decline in bee populations. And you probably know that bees and other pollinators play an essential role in food production – making possible the development of all variety of fruits, vegetables, coffee, chocolate, beer, wine and more. Did you know that you play an important role in helping to support our local, native pollinators?!
Simple actions you can take will provide food, shelter, water and space for a variety of beautiful and interesting-to-watch pollinating insects and birds. And the bonus is a beautiful addition to your home landscape. Join the Pollinator Posse!
This introductory level, small, interactive, group learning session put on by WSU Extension Clark County Master Gardener volunteers will introduce you to our pollinators and the plants upon which they depend. Get ideas on how to start a pollinator garden.
Put on in partnership with Clark County Public Health Green Neighbors Program. Participants will receive flower seeds and pollinator plants to take home. Bee the Change.
