DCVA Young Naturalists: Let's Make Native Seed Bombs

Saturday, May 28th 10am - 11:30am

Glenolden Park

Why are pollinators so important, and what can we do to help them? Let's learn about bees, butterflies, and other pollinators together and then make native wildflower seed bombs to create new native plant habitats for them!

DCVA programs are always free; donations are appreciated to support the work we do, but are not required.
