If any of you Tweeters are inspired to plant native plants to help feed
moths, nesting birds, and butterflies but are not sure which ones will work
best, I encourage you to sign in to Julie O'Donald's presentation to the

Please join us for our program night with Julie, as we delve into the
fascinating world of creating garden habitat. Julie will emphasize the best
