Everyone is invited to participate in our virtual conference, May 15-16, 2021, that will feature excellent speakers, grassroots organizing workshops, and leadership training. Please register for free today and please invite a friend to join you.

Saturday, May 15, 3:15-5:15pm, Stratford Ecological Center, 3083 Liberty Rd., Delaware, Ohio

Come join us at Stratford Ecological Center for a fun two hours of learning about pollinators and their habitats. We will do a leisurely stroll around the farm and learn about native bees, butterflies, and other insects that help with pollination. Each of these pollinators play a vital role in the food chain that we humans are a part of. Each month, the farm changes and new wonders will be found, so plan on joining us every month for new bees and topics.

All ages are welcome.
