Teachers and environmental educators are invited to participate in a make-and-take workshop featuring seed balls for butterflies.  Seed balls are a combination of clay, soil, and seeds that provide an easy and fun way to reseed the landscape.  We will be using milkweed seeds to create habitats for monarch butterflies and other pollinators.  We are excited to have Dr. Arlene Marturano, USC Center for Science Education, share her recipe for seed balls.  Also learn about A.C. Moore's award-winning environmental projects and tour their school garden with Green Team Coordinator Mrs. Nancy Frick. 

This event is sponsored by EEASC, the Richland Soil and Water Conservation District, and SC Green Steps Schools.
