Did you know that pollinators are responsible for every third bite of food consumed on the planet? In an increasingly stressed environment our welfare is more closely intertwined than ever with theirs. Come join Dan and Luanne Weekes of Pollination Station on an exploration of the critical role pollinators play in our ecosystem. All Welcome. Guest fee $5. no advance reservations necessary. This is an entertaining and educational presentation by the Pollinator Station info www.marthawashingtongardenclub.org
For the last thirteen years, we have been actively involved in wildlife rehabilitation and education at a local wildlife hospital and nature center, both as volunteers and employees. Working mostly with birds of prey and the occasional reptile or mammal, we were often found in festival type settings teaching about the environment and the impact humans have on wildlife. It wasn't long before we, as back yard beekeepers, incorporated honeybees into our displays with Monarch Butterflies and native pollinators soon following. We struck out on our own as Pollination Station four years ago, continuing to educate our community about Monarch Butterflies, Pollinators, NJ Wildlife and their unique roles in our ecosystem. http://www.pollinationstation.org At the Langhorne Gardens Nursing Home Arts and Crafts day , Next month, 5/14, at 2:30 we will be doing seashells on a circular background. Volunteers Welcome.
