You must inform Mr. Reynolds or Scoutmaster Mrs. Bushong ahead of time if you plan to attend because we must arrange enough transportation.
Scouts will assist in harvesting the seeds, especially milkweed. The hatchery has a pollinator garden that is used for public education and as a seed source for native plants. These seeds will be used on the facility next summer to plant additional native plant gardens. This is a great learning experience for the scouts and may give them insights into some of the challenges faced by our native pollinators, (bee's, butterflies, moths, etc.)
