Backyard Conservation Workshop
The Hoosier Heartland Resource Conservation & Development (RC&D) Council’s Backyard Conservation Committee is sponsoring a Backyard Conservation workshop on May 12, 2009 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Indiana Wildlife Federation (IWF) located at 4715 W. 106th Street, Zionsville, IN.
This is a great workshop for homeowners, business owners, neighborhood associations, and anyone else managing their property. Participants will hear from trained experts about water for wildlife and tour the (IWF) grounds and see a native prairie planting, a backyard wildlife pond, rain garden, rain barrels, bird/butterfly garden, native tree and shrub plantings, wildlife shelter, and much more!
There is no cost to attend this workshop but we ask that you pre-register so that adequate materials will be available. Click here for the workshop brochure.
This workshop is co-sponsored by IWF, USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service, Soil & Water Conservation Districts in Boone, Brown, Hamilton, Hancock, Hendricks, Johnson, Marion, Monroe, Morgan and Shelby Counties.
