The average neighborhood yard may look pretty, but doesn’t support the wide range of wildlife that is crucial to a healthy environment and community. The good news is that yards can be both beautiful and beneficial by incorporating the native plants that support our local wildlife! In this presentation, Ms. Lauren Simpson will share handy tips on how to create a wildlife garden at your own home, for the enjoyment of your family and the benefit of your community. Come join Hermann Park Conservancy to learn how to transform your own yard into a beautiful, pollinator paradise!
The event will be hosted on Zoom and also streamed via Facebook Live.

Volunteers meet the second and fourth Thursday of every month to propagate plants from locally collected native seed. A typical workday may include seeding pots, bumping up trays into 1-gallon containers, separating seedlings, and weeding pots. They will also have special seed collecting trips, invasive species removal workdays, and planting events in restored prairies.
