CREATING BUTTERFLY GARDENS

The second workshop of Summer 2012 held at 10:00am, Saturday 8/11

Beginning a butterfly gardening can be as simple as choosing flowering plants that will invite adult butterflies to your garden to feed. But if you want to create a butterfly garden that will act as a sanctuary, attracting a wide variety of butterflies while also providing a place where butterflies can grow and multiply, you will first need some simple planning. By considering which plants to grow and evaluating your garden site, you can plant a butterfly garden that will help with the creation of more butterflies.

Attend our class and see how easy and enjoyable the "Butterfly Garden" can be!

A GREAT WAY TO INTRODUCE CHILDREN TO GARDENING AND WILDLIFE!

Rain or shine- butterfly demo including live butterflies will be held in the greenhouse in case of inclement weather
