Butterfly Feeder Take & Make event hosted by Pipestone County Historical Society

Date:

Butterfly Feeder

Due to Governor Walz’s Executive Order the Pipestone County Historic Society is unable to host an in house Make & Take program currently.  We are therefore offering a children’s Take and Make event.

Individuals may purchase a Butterfly Feeder Kit.  This kit will come complete with local history information on the milkweed pod collection drive from the fall of 1944 and how local rural school children participated in this effort.  Also included in the kit are background information on pollinating insects, assembly instructions for the feeder, and extending activities to complete after the feeder is assembled.  All parts of the feeder are included in the kit and participants also receive a refill supply of nectar for their feeder.

You can purchase this kit from the Pipestone County Museum for $8.50 each.  You can get your kit in one of three ways.

  1. Visit our website (pipestonecountymuseum.com) and pay with PayPal and schedule a pickup time.
  2. Call the Museum at (507) 825-2563 to reserve a kit and pay with credit card and schedule a curbside pickup.
  3. Stop by the Museum (113 S. Hiawatha Ave) and purchase from the Museum Gift Shop.

The Museum is located at 113 S. Hiawatha Ave. in Pipestone.  If you have any questions, please call the Pipestone County Museum at (507) 825-2563 or email the Museum at pipctymu.net.  You may also visit our website:  pipestonecountymuseum.com.
