This past April (2024), we shared the importance of pollinators with over 900 Dodge County children! Targeting second graders, seed packets and informative pollinator flyers were distributed to schools in Beaver Dam, Watertown, Mayville, Juneau, Horicon, Waupun, Randolph, Lomira, and Iron Ridge. While our focus was second grade, we also reached students in other grades, and even entire schools in some of our smaller districts, bringing our message to a wider audience. The flyer, featuring vibrant images of flowers and butterflies, explained how pollinators help our gardens thrive.

This effort was made possible because of a very generous donation of seeds from Fleet Farm in Beaver Dam.
