DIY Bat Box Workshop
Sign-up is through the NCW Woodshop website: https://www.ncwwoodshop.com/classes/p/batboxes
Bats are incredibly important members of our local ecosystem. From pest control to pollination, bats provide important ecosystem services. Unfortunately, natural habitat is in decline as human development increases in our region. Installing a bat box on your property is an excellent way to give back to the creatures that provide us with so much!
During this 2-part class you will be guided through the process of constructing and painting a beautiful backyard bat box using mostly salvaged materials. Don't have space for a box in your backyard but still want to join us to learn the process? We can find a home that will benefit our local bat populations.
This class is a partnership between Waste Loop, NCW Woodshop, and the Wenatchee River Institute.
