Announcing Regular Landfill Pollinator Garden Workdays

We’re going to have regular workdays at the landfill pollinator garden each month, on the third Sunday of the month. The first of these will take place on Sunday, October 20, 2024, 8:30am to 11:30am.

  • No NPSOT sign up required! Join us at the garden when you can. Bring a hat, boots, gloves and water. Bring your favorite tools.
  • We’ll have the workday dates on NPSOT-Wilco’s website calendar. If NPSOT plans change for a particular date for some reason, we’ll update the specific date’s calendar entry so be sure to check there for news.

The Pollinator Garden is a collaboration of the NPSOT-Wilco chapter, Good Water Master Naturalists, Williamson County Master Gardeners, and Williamson County Waste Management. The garden includes a Monarch Waystation and is a Certified Texas Wildscape.

Volunteers help maintain the garden when the collaborating organizations announce a maintenance work day.  Anyone interested is invited to help!
