Description
Get crafty with your family and help improve wildlife habitat in your neighborhood. This hands-on workshop will teach you where and how to place nest boxes in ideal habitats to attract nesting birds during the breeding season. As a family, build one of our pre-cut kits and take your box home in the end. No experience is necessary, and all tools and materials are provided.
Nest boxes are suitable for Eastern Bluebirds and other small, cavity-nesting species such as Tree Swallows, House Wrens, Black-capped Chickadees, Tufted Titmice, and White-breasted Nuthatches.
This is a program designed for families with children, so every registration requires at least one adult and one child. This program is entirely indoors. $25 of your program fee covers the cost of materials.
