Supporter Spotlight
The family-friendly event will include educational activities and information regarding pollinators and native plants.
Organizers encourage attendees to arrive early for a chance to receive one of the 30 parsley plants that will be handed out on a first-come, first-served basis. There will also be seeds available for strawberry, cosmos, basil, nasturtium, and borage plants, which may be planted to create a pollinator garden.
The land trust is hosting multiple workshops with elementary afterschool programs in Onslow, Pender, New Hanover, and Brunswick counties.
The event is part of the @ncscifest, a monthlong celebration and educational program that runs through April and highlights the importance of pollinators in nature and our food supply.
