  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
PGP

Join us to learn how to incorporate native plants into your garden beds without having to say goodbye to your traditional flowering favorites and how to support wildlife, pollinator habitat and water quality! These drop-in workdays are part of Friends' ongoing efforts to preserve and restore pollinator habitats while maintaining the beautiful traditional gardens Pine Grove Park is known for. Upcoming Garden Maintenance Days: October 17th and 31st

We need volunteers to help incorporate native plants and sustainable gardening practices to support wildlife and pollinator habitat. Gardens that incorporate native plants benefit pollinators, wildlife, and water quality. No experience needed; bring your favorite gardening gloves and tools if you have them! Meet us in the Pine Grove Park parking lot at the Blue Star Memorial in downtown Port Huron along the St. Clair River. For more info, contact brooke@scriver.org or visit www.scriver.org/events.
