Join us for a special native plant walk at Rosy Creek Farmstead in Jetson, Butler County. Anna and Jake Greinetz are generously opening their 76-acre farm, a diverse ecosystem boasting wetlands, ponds, woods, and pastures, for a unique exploration. We'll start by admiring the wildflower beds near the house, then venture towards the woods to discover a wide array of native wildflowers.

Please note: the exact address will be provided after registration. Register now.

Attendees should park by the garage if you're comfortable with a fairly steep gravel hill (3-minute walk), or at the bottom by the barn for more even terrain, but only 4-wheel drive vehicles should park at the bottom. Remember to wear sturdy boots, cover your legs and arms, and bring your preferred tick and chigger prevention. We can't wait to explore with you!

Join us for a unique garden tour of three beautiful locations on Saturday, August 16. These gardens have been designed to support local pollinators and serve as healthy habitats. The tour begins with open visiting times from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. at both the Scottsville Methodist Church and the Scottsville Animal Hospital memorial garden. Then, from 11 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., we'll gather to tour the beautiful Barren River Lake State Park pollinator garden. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn about supporting pollinators and see incredible local efforts in action!

Following the tour, attendees may join us for an optional lunch at the Driftwood Restaurant in the Lodge.
