Have you heard the buzz about pollinators? In honor of National Pollinator Week, join Lowcountry Land Trust, The Bee Cause Project, Tri-County Master Gardeners, Roots & Shoots, and Mount Pleasant Waterworks for a day at the Marsh View Trail pollinator garden. Friends, family, gloves, and tools are welcome as we work to spruce up the garden while learning about the many benefits of pollinators and the native plants that attract them. This is a family-friendly, free palooza! We kindly request advance registration:
