Thank you for joining us to learn about native plants and pollinators in seeded paper and natural rope workshops + family-friendly free play with nature + perennial plant giveaways

Echo Railton & Monica Gutierrez guided you through seeded handmade paper and rope making from materials gathered from gardens, forests and roadsides.

The workshop was a hands on native plant based activities in the park for all ages. We played with seeds, pine cones, and other materials. We learned to make string and rope all while learning about the importance of native pollinators to the complex biodiversity right here in the city.

Offered by artists who are butterfly rangers with the David Suzuki Foundation, members of Pollinator Partnership and trained nature stewards.

We laid down a long scroll of paper embedded with milkweed seeds native plants will restore biodiversity and build butterfly habitat.
