Pollinator Paradise: If You Build It, They Will Hum
Fayetteville, GA
Think your backyard is just a patch of grass? Think again! Behind every blooming flower is a bustling world of "unstung heroes" - our native bees, butterflies, and beetles. While honeybees get all the headlines, our local native pollinators are the true engines of our ecosystem and they’re looking for a place to call home.
Join us for this free program and learn about the role of native plants, native bees, and other pollinators. Leave this program with a better understanding of how to create a wildlife habitat for all pollinators. The educator for this program will be Fayette County Master Gardener Extension Volunteer (MGEV) Charlane Hemphill.
