Discover how to “put your garden to bed” for winter without evicting your winged guests with the legendary Maraleen Manos-Jones, a passionate pollinator protector with over 50 years of butterfly wisdom!
Take a stroll through the Catskills Visitor Center’s pollinator garden with butterfly expert Maraleen Manos-Jones on Saturday, September 20 from 10-11:30 AM and learn how to prep your garden for winter while keeping it pollinator-friendly.
With over 50 years of butterfly magic under her wings, Maraleen is a master gardener, author, and environmental activist who’s protected monarchs in Mexico, helped ban harmful chemicals locally, and inspired thousands with her stories.
Don’t miss this chance to connect with nature, ask questions, and leave ready to turn your garden into a pollinator haven—even in the cold months!
