Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) invites anyone interested in gardening, landscaping, native plants and trees, and native pollinators to its free, online Wild Webcast. Spring is the time when many gardeners and others are out digging in the dirt to prepare their landscapes for the coming growing season. Planting native plants can help the garden grow by attracting native bees, birds, and butterflies as pollinators. And many fruit and vegetable plants produce better from pollination by some of Missouri’s hundreds of species of native bees and butterflies.
The Wild Webcast entitled “Birds and Bees and Butterfly Weed: Bringing Native Nature to Your Landscape” is on Wednesday, April 27, from noon to 1 p.m.
