What do coffee, chocolate, gardening, and our wonderful windows have in common? Besides being some of our favorite things, they also represent important and meaningful ways that you can have a positive impact on the birds we love!
Join the Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance (SoWBA) in sampling free Bird-Friendly coffee and chocolates and light appetizers. Explore and share native plants we can add to our yards, balconies and patios to boost birds, and other ways we can keep them safe in our neighborhoods.
The event will include three short presentations (5-10 minutes each) about:
- supporting birds through gardening with native plants
- preventing birds from flying into windows
- how the Smithsonian Bird Friendly® coffee certification protects birds in their winter habitats
During this event, attendees will get to:
- see, touch, and share easy ways to keep birds from flying into windows, including taking home a window treatment kit for a small donation
- taste delicious Bird Friendly coffee from one of Wisconsin’s first certified roasters, Barnwood Coffee of Two Rivers, and purchase some to take home if desired
- peruse native plant catalogs and learn about SoWBA’s Native Plant Sale
- take home a free native plant (species to be determined)
Registration is free, but requested to ensure there are enough materials and products for all attendees.
