Attract pollinators to your yard by planting native plants that will attract, feed, and shelter them!

Many native seeds need the cold temperatures to begin their growing cycle. We will provide a “mini greenhouse” and native seeds for your first project to take root! Resources to further your learning will be provided.

*Note: Some workshops will have different pricing (see specific workshop details above for pricing)
As part of Friends of Holly Hill Farm's goal to become a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive organization, we have instituted tiered pricing for our adult educational workshops. This allows individuals to choose the price that works best for them, reducing the cost-barrier to our workshop programs* and allowing for community donations to help make affordable educational workshops available to all.
Please choose the price that works best for you–regardless of which tier you select, everyone enjoys the same workshop!
If you are able, please select Tier A or Tier B, you help support other community member's participation in our educational workshops and make tiered pricing possible.
Tier A: Covers cost of workshop + donation to support affordable educational workshops
(Member $25. Non member $35)
Tier B: Covers the cost to run the workshop
(Member $15. Non Member $25)
Tier C: Reduced price for accessibility
(Member $15. Non Member $25)
