ECO: Pollinator SMRT Garden Installation
HOSD.org/211sandiego., Del Mar, California, United States, 92014
Join the Solana Beach Eco Rotary Club with the installation of a pollinator SMRT garden at San Dieguito County Park! This garden will educate the public on climate change, pollution, habitat loss, and the importance of native plants and pollinators. Volunteers will be able to return to the park to see progress on a beautiful wildlife garden that they helped with. This is a three‑part project taking place in the first three Sundays of November.
