Out With the Weeds, In With the Pollinators! Virtual Workshop

Workshop/Training | Gardening

In partnership with, USU Extension - Summit County and Summit CWMA UT, join us for a FREE workshop all about how to support native pollinators in your yard and community.

Did you know that in addition to being harmful to the populations of our native plant life, noxious weeds can also make it tough for essential pollinators to survive. Join panelists Amy Sibul from The University of Utah, Mindy Wheeler with the Utah Department of Natural Resources, and Dee Downing with Red Ant Works Inc. to learn how and why to make your yard a pollinator friendly haven.

This program is sponsored by a grant from the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food.
