Native Plant Workshop on April 17th at Ritchie Community League. Take home new information and potted seeds to grow!

Ready to rewild your yard? During this workshop while we sow native seeds with our hands, explore native biodiversity that may visit your yard, understanding the history and consequences of the removal of native plants. You’ll be provided practical maintenance tips and seasonal best practices for supporting our ecosystem.

Our goal is for all attendees to leave feeling curious, and engaged. Ready to take action and educate others on how we as a community can work together to sustain the fireflies, birds, and bees. Meeting others who share the same goals.
