We had an amazing turnout at our native plant sale with the Licking Land Trust this past weekend at the Granville Farmers Market!

Excited to announce that Licking County Pollinator Pathway and Licking Land Trust will be selling these amazing mosquito kits at their upcoming events for only $4! Kits include instructions, label for the bucket, and one mosquito dunk, which equals four months of mosquito protection (you use 1/4 dunk per month, per 5 gallon bucket)! Most homes will want two buckets though for full protection. For more information check out this Homegrown National Park website —> https://homegrownnationalpark.org/mosquito-bucket-challenge/
