Lawns to Legumes Webinar – July 28

Posted by PLSLWD Staff - July 13, 2020 - News

Would you like to see your lawn transformed native flowers, and support pollinators and Minnesota wildlife? The Scott Soil & Water Conservation District is hosting a free Lawns to Legumes workshop via webinar on July 28 at 6:30 pm. Learn how to do your part to support pollinators, protect local water quality and see how you can enrich your landscape! You don’t need a large property to add native plants for pollinators.

Join the Scott SWCD for an overview of the Lawns to Legumes program in Scott County and how to receive funding for a project in your yard. RSVP is required for this free webinar here.

Lawns to Legumes is a state program aimed at increasing pollinator habitat in residential areas to support declining pollinator populations including that of our endangered state bee, the rusty patched bumblebee. The Scott SWCD has received a Neighborhood Grant as part of the program to fund pollinator habitat in demonstration neighborhoods on residential property.

Native Prairie Workshop Webinar: July 23

Posted by PLSLWD Staff - June 25, 2020 - News

Would you like to see your lawn transformed native flowers, and support pollinators and Minnesota wildlife? 

Join the Scott Soil & Water Conservation District for a FREE Native Prairie Workshop Webinar on July 23 at 6:30 pm. Register for the free workshop here.

Learn about site preparation, how to get your planting started, receive maintenance tips and find out more about possible funding.

You do not need to live on a large property to create natural areas, help pollinators and enhance wildlife habitat. Something as small as a half-acre of your lawn or as large as a 10 acre or more crop field can be converted to beautiful and environmentally beneficial native grasses and flowers! Even a smaller patch of native plants in your backyard is beneficial for pollinators.

Contact the Scott SWCD for more information about the webinar or starting your project at 952-492-5425.
