Lions Park Pollinator Patch

Cheyenne Birds and Pollinators Need Your Help!

  • Are you planning to thin out the plants in your garden next May?  
  • Do you enjoy gardening?
  • Would you volunteer to help us water these plants this summer at Lions Park?  

The Cheyenne-High Plains Audubon Society (CHPAS) needs about 45 plants to create a Pollinator Patch surrounding the new “Place for Pollinators” interpretive sign. We want to create a small “meadow” where none currently exists.

We hope to expand on this area in future years, bringing more color and plant diversity to the park.  

CHPAS and the City of Cheyenne Parks and Recreation staff have identified 18 species for this area that will bloom throughout the growing season and provide foraging opportunities to a wide variety of pollinators and birds.

Next time you are in Lions Park, check out the new sign and the future Pollinator Patch semi-circle around it.  We need 2 or 3 plants of each of these 18 species for the Lions Park Pollinator Patch.  Click here for a listing of plants.  

We also need help watering these new plants until they are established.  We will water at least twice weekly, depending on rainfall. 

Please let us know if you would like to help us with our Pollinator Patch by contacting CHPAS by email at cheyenneaudubon@gmail.com.

Or, if you will be at the Habitat Hero Workshop on February 7th,  stop at our table to see Vicki and sign up.  The birds, bees, and bugs thank you!
