  • Date: April 22, 2023
    Time: 1:00pm - 2:30pm

    West Des Moines, IA

Join Kelly from the Iowa Prairie Network and Pocket Prairies of Des Moines on April 22nd to learn more about gardening with native plants. This program will highlight how adding hardy, low maintenance native plants in our yards can add curb appeal and attract pollinators like bees, birds, and butterflies, all while benefiting the environment. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions about planning, starting, and maintaining native gardens. There will also be an opportunity take home a native seed packet or two to add to your own garden, while supplies last.
