5:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Where

Don’t stomp that caterpillar, celebrate it. Native insects in the garden aren’t a disease; they belong there and provide needed food for nesting birds. Join Shaw Nature Reserve, Missouri Department of Conservation, St. Louis Audubon Society and Wild Ones staff as we discuss the many benefits of native plants and garden insects for bird welfare, and tour the garden in search of creeping, crawling and flying wildlife.

Free, but you must register in advance. Participants are encouraged to bring food to share. Drinks will be provided. Registration is limited to the first 40 people. Register by emailing Besa Schweitzer.
