A big thank you to the folks at Cloverdale Farm County Park in Barnegat for hosting two native plant classes this spring! It was wonderful to spend time with participants potting up native seedlings, creating a pollinator garden, and exploring the many benefits of native plants. Thank you to everyone who joined us—we look forward to future programs together. Happy planting!
