Symposium Videos Available on Youtube
If you missed April 12’s Keweenaw Native Plant Symposium, you can still catch a couple presentations on our Youtube channel. They’ve both received great reviews.
- Kass Urban-Mead,
Pollinator Conservation Specialist, The Xerces Society, on
“Pollinators in the Woods? Exploring the Many Ways Wild Bees Nest and Forage in Woody Habitats,” and - Michelle Wietek-Stephens
Designs by Nature U.P. Native Plants, LLC
“Butterfly Bonanza: Native Plants for U.P. Moths & Butterflies”
Welcome to the Wild Ones Keweenaw Chapter
We are on a journey to
- educate ourselves and others about the special attributes of native plants and how to incorporate them into our gardens and civic landscapes;
- create habitat that nurtures wildlife, including bees, butterflies, and birds; and
- develop resilient landscapes that absorb runoff, protecting water quality and infrastructure.
Regular meetings are held at 6 p.m., the third Tuesday of the month, often on Zoom, sometimes in person.
