This registration directly helps us run the Pollination Pathway workshop series!  We look forward to meeting with you and sharing how to create ecologically resilient and biologically diverse gardens for our local pollinators! The workshop will run from 13:00 to 16:00 on Saturday, July 12, 2025. We will meet at the Syringa Provincial Park, along the beach beside the day use area. We will be outdoors for the duration of the workshop; please bring water, sun appropriate clothing, snacks, a folding chair for sitting, and anything else to ensure your comfort. Clipboards and writing utensils will be necessary.  KNPS will provide a few clipboards for those who do not have one.
