Explore the beautiful flowers blooming in the nature center’s Prairie Sampler and butterfly garden and their special relationship with pollinators. We’ll look for pollinators such as bees, wasps, flies, moths, butterflies, beetles and thrips and observe the important job they do helping plants grow. Make your own pollinator to take home.
