Master Gardeners work with schools, neighborhood groups, and community organizations to develop butterfly and pollinator friendly habitats throughout the Centre County region. Master Gardeners teach satellite stewards about how to garden for pollinators. By providing examples of pollinator friendly gardening practices and highlighting pleasing garden designs and plantings, these new garden sites extend the mission of the Snetsinger Butterfly Garden.
The satellite garden partnership program provides enhanced educational opportunities to participate in the activities and events offered at the Snetsinger Butterfly Garden. In addition, our satellite gardens are utilized by Master Gardeners to provide presentations and other programs to extend our educational outreach opportunities to schools and the larger community.
