Plant pollinator patches at Camel's Hump Park and Open Space

Saturday, May 20, 2017 - 9:30am to 11:30am
Registrants will receive detailed directions to the meeting site
Pollinator on a Lead Plant

Join us at Camel's Hump Park in Cottage Grove, home to beautiful river views overlooking Highway 61. Alongside FMR staff volunteers will install multiple pollinator patches throughout a section of the park. Planting in patches makes it easier for the birds, bees and butterflies to find the pollen they seek. 

As always, all tools and training will be provided and volunteers are encouraged to work at their own pace and comfort level.
