Doors open at 6:30pm for a community social with beer, wine, sparkling water, and tea available for purchase. The presentation will start at 7:00pm.
Native plants aren’t only beautiful, they’re also essential for pollinators! Species like bees, butterflies, and other helpful invertebrates rely on these plants for food, habitat, and more. Our presenter, Angie Orpet from the Xerces Society, will discuss collaborative efforts made by Washington growers to conserve these important species. She’ll discuss how planting native plants and creating pollinator habitat on working lands can assist with crop production.
