Build a Habitat for Mother Nature’s Little Helpers

Birds, bats, and bugs are crucial contributors to our ecosystem. But with urban development and ecosystem loss, many of these friends struggle to find places to make safe homes.

That’s where you come in! 

Join Groundwork Denver and Special Guest Instructor Michael Alcazar for a fun and impactful workshop. We’ll learn more about these critters and the important roles they play, and then get to building. You can pick one of four options:

• Bird house
• Bird feeder
• Bat box
• Insectary

You can choose to keep your creation and install it where you live, or you can leave it with Groundwork Denver to redistribute to community members living in areas with especially high levels of habitat loss.

We’ll provide all the tools and supplies — all you need to bring is yourself, closed-toe shoes, and eco-enthusiasm!

Ages 10+. Youth 10-13 must be accompanied by an adult. All participants must sign our volunteer release of liability, which will be emailed to registrants ahead of the event.

REGISTRATION REQUIRED.

LOCATION: Birdseed Collective: 4496 Grant St, Denver, CO 80216
