Wondering what really belongs in your recycling bin? Join us for Recycling 101, a free recycling class led by Sustainability Specialist Emma Pardini from Resource Renew.
In this one-hour class, you’ll explore the basics of recycling and waste reduction, including what belongs in your bin, how recycling is processed, and why proper sorting makes a difference. Emma will share practical, easy-to-use tips for reducing waste at home and invite your questions during an interactive Q&A.
This free class is open to everyone, and Co-op Explorers are welcome. As a bonus, one attendee will take home an Earth Day prize pack—an extra perk for joining us for an informative, approachable evening focused on sustainability.
Looking to support pollinators beyond the usual garden favorites? Join us for a pollinator gardening class and explore the wide variety of native plants that help butterflies and other beneficial insects thrive.
Jen Stenersen of Shoreview Natives will introduce dozens of native flowers, grasses, trees, and shrubs that provide essential food and habitat for butterflies, moths, and other valuable pollinators throughout their life cycles.
She’ll also share practical guidance for incorporating native plants into home landscapes. Whether you’re starting small or rethinking your yard entirely, you’ll leave with ideas for creating healthier, more resilient ecosystems that benefit pollinators and the local environment.
Tickets are free, but please register to reserve your spot.
