Pollinator Fest & Native Plant Sale

Join us for the McLane Center’s first annual Pollinator Fest! Previously known at the Native Plant Sale and Craft Fair, this year the event is taking place outdoors in our large pollinator meadow. You won’t want to miss this fun and informative day. 

June 6, 2026, 10am-5pm

Pollinator Fest is free to attend. If you feel inspired to support New Hampshire Audubon’s work, please consider a gift to our Annual Fund. Your contribution supports priorities like environmental education for people of all ages across NH, stewardship of nearly 10,000 acres of conserved habitat, science-based environmental policy and advocacy, and statewide conservation research and wildlife monitoring.
