Join us on April 27, 2019 from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm for Pollinator Day!

Pollinator Day is a free, family-friendly event packed with hands-on activities for all ages.  Activities include beehive tours, building your own hummingbird feeder, native bee nest, and butterfly feeder, planting for pollinators, crafts for the kids, and more.  There will be classes on bumblebees, monarchs, and planting for birds and butterflies. Local vendors also will be present selling garden and nature related items. Attendees will receive a free t-shirt (youth only), tote bag (1 per family), a native tree or shrub, and a complimentary lunch, while supplies last.

"This is a day for education and fun," said Linda Pahner, Pollinator Day Committee Member and Sunnyside Master Gardener.  "There is something for all ages, and the best part is that it is free! This will be our fourth year and  our attendance has grown to more than  800!"

Pollinator Day is hosted by the Purdue Extension Floyd County at the  Purdue Research Park at 3000 Technology Avenue, New Albany, Indiana. Event will be held rain or shine.
