About this event

Why not add a beautiful stock-tank dragonfly pond to your yard?

You’ll learn how at this great talk.

Along with interesting facts about dragonflies and their life cycles, we’ll learn how to choose the right stock tank and location, which plants to consider, and get a suggested materials list. We’ll also hear pro tips on preparing the site, installing the pond, adding plants, and maintenance, plus our speaker will share photos of her own own lovely pond.

PLUS, stay after for a NATIVE PLANT SALE!

ABOUT THE SPEAKER: Kristy Baker is a Texas Master Naturalist living in Harlingen. She spends her spare time in her native plant garden and around her stock-tank pond where she enjoys watching birds, butterflies, bees, and dragonflies. Originally from small-town Iowa where she spent much time outdoors, she became a Tennessee Naturalist while living there for many years, coming to be known as “the Bug Lady” by neighborhood kids due to her large native plant garden and landscaped yard which attracted various birds, butterflies and pollinators.
