Description

Join Chino Basin Water Conservation District for a walk and talk in our demonstration garden to learn about top waterwise and beautiful plants you can use to bring butterflies and songbirds to your yard!

Learn about their favorite “living bird feeder” plants. No need to buy bags of seed!

They will also discuss additional easy and low-or-no-cost landscape features including DIY bird baths to help you amplify your space’s habitat value for a wide range of bird and butterfly species.

The instructor for this workshop will be Scott Kleinrock, Conservation Programs Manager here at Chino Basin Water Conservation District and the Waterwise Community Center.

Scott has been working in horticulture for almost 20 years, focused on both the design and ongoing care of sustainable native or edible landscapes in Southern California at the residential and public garden scales. He has a master’s degree in landscape architecture for Cal Poly Pomona and was previously the Landscape Design and Planning Coordinator at the Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens

Each participant will be able to select a native wildflower seed packet of their choice to take home.

After the workshop concludes, for those who wish to stay, they will be offering a raffle give-away of some of our favorite waterwise California native plants. They will also tell you a bit about each one, why it is one of our favorites, and the garden situations in which it is likely thrive.
