Great River Greening is holding trainings for this summer's community science initiative, counting pollinators at our restoration sites. Volunteer monitors will “adopt” a park and conduct 30-minute pollinator surveys independently four to six times from July through September.
At these 1 hour trainings, you will learn how to differentiate four categories of Minnesota's pollinators--bumble bees, butterflies, honey bees, and more!
Trainings for 2026:
June 16 Heritage Park | St. Cloud
June 17 Garlough Park | West St. Paul
June 23 Stillwater Public Library | Stillwater *5:30pm
June 25 Spring Lake Park Reserve | Hastings
June 26 Lebanon Hills Regional Park | Eagan
- Trainings will be from 12-1pm and 5:30-6:30pm
