Backyard Conservation: Pocket Prairies
July 8, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Would you like to manage your yard to benefit native wildlife and pollinators? Have you considered adding a prairie style plot to your yard, whether it be just a small area or a much larger acreage, but perhaps do not know where to start? Then this program may be for you! We will go over the appropriate native plants, how to start a prairie, the challenges, the resources, and the benefits! We will visit and compare a small pocket prairie and the large prairies at Infirmary Mound Park and also discuss the experience the instructor has had converting a portion of their own lawn to prairie. Join us for this fun and interactive class! Register by July 6th.
