Lagoon Friendly Landscaping (St. Lucie Audubon)

In September 2021, the Indian River Lagoon Aquatic Preserves kicked off a native plant pollinator garden project to demonstrate the importance and appeal of lagoon friendly landscaping. A year and a half later, the project has fostered community engagement through garden maintenance, bee and butterfly monitoring, as well as special projects and events. Join us to learn about the wildlife this project has provided for thus far (native butterflies, native bees, birds, and additional wildlife), and how you could get involved!

Before the presentation begins, the annual Grace Stock Awards will be presented to three STEM students for their outstanding projects on conservation.
