"My Garden of a Thousand Bees" is a wildlife cinematographer's backyard quarantine project turned PBS documentary. This hour-long pollinator special will give you renewed appreciation for the hardest workers in your own backyard.

Bring your own dinner and join us early for picnicking and yard games, courtesy of Moretown Library. We'll have a few chairs, but we recommend bringing your own folding chair or comfy cushion/blanket for sitting. Free information about pollinators and wildflower seed packets will also be distributed. Part of the #PlantWildflowers initiative.
Funding for these events comes in part from the VT Department of Libraries
and our Friends organizations.
