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.
Lunch is included in the cost of registration and will feature delicious small plates of pollinator-required foods. Attendees will have the opportunity to win a Giant Eagle gift card!
This program will take place in the Activity Room at the Settler’s Ridge Giant Eagle Market District.
Directions: Enter through the Cafe doors, and you can either take the stairs or use the elevator. Once you’re upstairs, the Activity Room will be directly ahead on your right. You’ll enter the room through the double glass doors.
