BECOME A WILD ONES AMBASSADOR

This  workshop is to help Wild Ones members become more confident when sharing our educational mission. We'll review all the resources we offer and provide suggestions on how to answer frequently asked questions. The goal is for Wild Ones Twin Cities to have a pool of members we can call on to staff educational outreach tables throughout the year.

Workshop  is free but registration in required. For more information and to register, email info@wildonestwincities.org. An outreach volunteer will contact you to answer any questions and confirm your registration.


Spring Native Plant Resource Fair

Tuesday | May 21, 2024

Open to Public from 6:00 to 8:00 pm

Indoor and Outdoor Activities

Wood Lake Nature Center, Richfield MN

Wild Ones Twin Cities has invited professional native plant landscape designers, experienced Wild Ones members and partnering organizations who share our mission to offer tips and answer questions on native plant habitat gardening. Information will be available on plant selection, garden site care, landscape design, climate resilience and flora fauna associations. In addition to tabled activities indoors we are offering a naturalist led walking tour and demonstrations on how to bare root plants, what to do with winter sown seedlings and how to tell the difference between European and Asian earthworms.

All Hands On Deck!

The Spring Resource Fair is our chance to show the greater community who Wild Ones is and what we have to offer. There are many, many opportunities for members to help, from set up and tear down to greeters, educational outreach and hands on demonstrations. Click HERE to volunteer or contact Julia Vanatta for more information.
