Master Gardeners Help Woodland
Dunes With Outdoor Education
Two Rivers, WI - Woodland Dunes Nature Center received a
$500 donation from the Master Gardener Volunteers of Manitowoc County to be
used for environmental education programs for children.
“We are grateful for
this donation,” stated Wendy Lutzke, Environmental Educator and Butterfly
Garden Coordinator at the Dunes. “It allows us to provide opportunities for
local youth to participate in hands-on activities that encourage a sense of
pride and stewardship of our natural resources.”
According to Jim
Knickelbine, Executive Director of Woodland Dunes, the gift will be used for
instruction regarding habitat restoration, butterflies and other pollinating
insects in the Dorothy Star Bee and Butterfly Garden at Woodland Dunes.
Proceeds from the annual
Garden Walk held by the Master Gardeners financed the educational grant.
