FortWhyte Alive is pleased to offer a special opportunity for grandparents and grandchildren to learn about Manitoba’s natural habitats and how you can do your part in sustaining them, while participating in a variety of activities, games, and crafts. Each week will incorporate an element of biodiversity which you can add to your backyard!

Food: Providing a variety of food sources is the easiest way to enhance the biodiversity of your yard. In this session we will investigate the importance of pollinators as we plant a mini nectar garden in recycled hand-fashioned pots.
