Supporting Backyard Pollinator Habitats

It’s National Pollinator Week! If you’re concerned about pollinators – and who shouldn’t be?! – one of the best and easiest actions you can take to assist them is to provide a space for them in your own garden. Join us as Education & Exhibits Director, Dr. Mark Miller, examines the essential elements and features that pollinators need to not only survive but thrive. Plants that grow well in western Pennsylvania and provide food, shelter and/or egg-laying for pollinators will be featured. The lecture will be followed by a plant walk in the Hillside Pollinator Garden.

Members $10  |  Nonmembers $15
