The City of Santa Barbara's Sustainability & Resilience Department is celebrating National Pollinator Week with Pollinator-Palooza! Get to know your local pollinators at this fun, free, family-friendly event taking place on Sunday, June 28, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Arroyo Burro Open Space. 

Citizen scientists can take part in an educational “bioblitz” using the iNaturalist app to document plants and pollinators found at the park during a guided nature walk. Kids of all ages can create pollinator-themed crafts with Explore Ecology, get their faces painted, and check out a curated selection of books from the Library on the Go. 

The City's Parks and Recreation Department, Pacific Coast Pollinators, and the UC Master Gardeners of Santa Barbara will also be there to share information.

Please note that parking is limited on Alan Road. Carpooling, walking, or biking to the event is encouraged.
