June is the ideal month to expand native plantings because Mother Nature can do much of the watering for you. To make the most of rainy season circle Saturday, June 1, for Tropical Audubon Society’s annual Go-Native Plant Sale, presented by Galloway Farm Nursery.
The popular annual event will be hosted by the conservation organization’s knowledgeable master gardeners who will suggest the best plant types for your landscape and provide cultivation tips. Patrons can also pick up a free Bird-friendly Gardening Guide tailored to our region.
The bounty of native plants on offer will help attract and nurture wildlife, and will transform your yard, patio or balcony into a thriving, low-maintenance pollinator-friendly habitat. For inspiration you can also visit the pollinator gardens and stroll the nature trails that thread the society’s Pine Rockland and Hardwood Hammock demonstration forests.
BONUS Activities:
• Learn about pollinators and plant identification;
• Take a guided bird walk;
• Procure wild tropical honey produced by resident bees;
