Urban Prairies Project Community Events
The Urban Prairies Project (UPP) improves the ecological health of urban and suburban open spaces along the front range and beyond, by connecting members of the community with habitat conservation for pollinators and other wildlife. UPP understands the undeniable links between greenspace health and human health, and works with municipal and community partners to make nature that is close to home healthy for all!
You can help! By joining our community events, you will learn and work alongside Butterfly Pavilion staff, natural resource professionals, Restoration Master Volunteers and other members of our communities to collect information about our spaces and increase native habitat! All while engaging in and learning about the incredible spaces in our area, and the amazing wildlife that call them home!
