Butterfly and bee-friendly gardening

Posted

LIBERTY, NY — New and seasoned gardeners alike can take advantage of a spring horticulture class series that continues with a hands-on Pollinator Friendly Gardening workshop on Wednesday, May 25. Cornell Cooperative Extension Sullivan County’s (CCESC) Master Gardener Volunteer program will host this class from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at its Gerald J. Skoda Extension Education Center on 64 Ferndale-Loomis Rd.

Pollinators, like bees and butterflies, are essential to the health of our precious gardens and farms. This class will teach participants how to attract bees and butterflies to their backyards.

The cost is $20 per person, $15 per CCESC enrollee.

Anyone can enroll in CCESC with an annual contribution of $25 per household. Space is limited and pre-registration with non-refundable payment is required in advance. Seats are guaranteed only with payment.

Partial scholarships are available, made possible through generous donations from Sullivan Renaissance.

Registration and more information can be completed by emailing sullivan@cornell.edu, visiting www.sullivancce.or calling 845/292-6180. Payment can be made in advance by check, cash, or credit card. Additional donations for CCESC programs are appreciated.
