Good morning, bird club,
Last Saturday, we attended the Pennsylvania Native Plant Society Festival at Millbrook Marsh.
Joe Gyekis and I tabled at the Bird Town State College stand with Anna from the sustainability office. People were interested and excited about the information we had to share and we even had people from other counties saying they would like to bring this initiative to their municipality.
Amber Wievel and I presented about creating habitat for birds by gardening with natives, and Amber did a terrific job explaining how to tackle a project like that at home. We had about 35 attendees.
I want to thank the organizers who made this possible despite the tremendous challenges last week; some of them were still lacking electricity and internet. The festival was very successful and people braved the rain to show up.
