GARDENING FOR BEES AND BUTTERFLIES

Saturday, October 14, 2023 - 10am - noon

Demonstration Garden on the NID Grounds

1036 W. Main Street - Grass Valley

Please join the Master Gardeners of Nevada County for a free, outdoor workshop. The Master Gardeners of Nevada County are excited to present attracting bees and butterflies to your garden.

What do birds and butterflies have in common? Caterpillars! Caterpillars are baby butterflies, and also are the most important food for baby birds. So if you grow the plants that both birds and butterflies need, you’ll have more of both in your garden. And fall is the right time for planting!

Questions ? The Hotline is OPEN!
