Through the Lawns to Legumes: Habitat at Home program this fall, we are working with DIY participants across the state of Minnesota to plant new pollinator habitat, expand existing native gardens, and get to know the pollinators living in these spaces. For participants who are new to gardening, we are offering the chance to be matched with a coach! Coaches include conservation professionals, Minnesota Water Stewards, Master Gardeners, experienced gardeners, and past Lawns to Legumes participants. For some programs such as Master Gardeners or Minnesota Water Stewards, time spent coaching participants counts as service hours. If you would like to be matched with one or more participants working on a fall planting project, sign up below!
We also host an online forum for participants in The Hive. If you are interested in joining that space to answer questions and engage with participants across the state, let us know.
Thank you for being willing to share your knowledge and excitement about native plantings with others in Minnesota. It truly helps us build a movement to protect pollinators, clean water, and this state we call home!
