2 hour workshop – Backyard Butterfly Beacons

“Just living isn’t enough,” said the butterfly, “one must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower.” – Hans Christian Anderson. Come learn which plants and other beacons will attract butterflies to your yard.  The first hour Master Gardener and Master Naturalist Neli Spurrell will walk you through our gardens, pointing out many of the plants that butterflies must have to survive. During the hands-on second half, local pottery artists will teach you how to make a terracotta butterfly dish AND the recipe recommended by the National Butterfly Center for feeding butterflies.  This workshop will be held at the Aransas County office of AgriLife Extension, 892 Airport Rd in Rockport.  Go to our online store to register – https://aspmgstore.org/  click on “workshops” to register or call 790-0103 for information.
