About the Event
Looking for a fun way to get outside, meet new people, and connect with nature? Whether you're wrangling kids, catching up with a friend, or just flying solo with your curiosity, a bioblitz is a perfect excuse to get outside and explore.
A bioblitz is part nature scavenger hunt, part citizen science, and all about discovery. In just 90 minutes, we’ll see how many plants, bugs, birds, and creatures we can find in a garden.
No experience or expertise required—we’ll help you learn along the way.
And no need to sign up—just show up to this free event ready to explore.
