This session has been rescheduled from its original date of July 16 to the new date of August 18, 2022.

Entomophilous. Entemo-what? Derived from the Greek word “éntomon,” meaning insect, entomophilous pollination refers to plants that require insects for their pollination needs. Let’s wander around the McLane Center’s gardens as we search for our fluttery, fuzzy, and buzzy pollinator pals after first learning some basics about the process of pollination through a skit and a game. 

Intended for kids and families, the Buds & Blooms Series is a compilation of five in-person public programs intended to introduce participants to the magic and wonder of our native plants and pollinators. Occurring monthly through October, each program highlights a topic pertaining to pollinators and includes an interactive activity as well as a take away. Parental supervision is required and content/material is best suited for children ages 4-12.

This program is free of cost, but RSVP’s are required to reserve your spot.
