The Franklin Park Conservatory is ready to celebrate our local ecosystem, and this one-day event is something worth sneezing at.
Pollinator Palooza will take over FPC on Saturday, June 24 from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. with a free festival dedicated to pollinators. From kid-friendly educational activities to live music, here’s what you need to know before you grow:
- Four food trucks will be available — Machi Hibachi, Taquitos Food Truck, Turtle Island, and Rime Time Pops.
- Local musician Greg Greyson will play soft rock + jazz.
- The Bugman, a local insect expert, will be on hand with wildlife for families to meet throughout the day.
- Learn about pollinators at FPC from Denise Ellsworth, Program Director of Honey Native Pollinator Education with the Ohio State University.
- Meet or shop from 30+ local businesses, organizations, and action groups.
- Watch food demonstrations led by Heather Bell, the Culinary & Sustainability Educator for the Conservatory.
