Join us on one of the last few days of spring to explore, observe, and engage in our unique garden ecosystem. A lovely walk in the garden can be so rich when you take the time for close observation and appreciation of nature’s systems. We are offering a special opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the interconnected systems of local ecology with naturalist and mycologist Damon Tighe. There will be many ways for you to participate as a MCBG Naturalist that day. We will be offering: an array of guided walks, info tables featuring our leading local ecological organizations, and tutorials on how to use iNaturalist and practice your skills as a citizen scientist. This will be a day for everybody to enjoy Nature’s wonders. You can sign up for one walk or two walks and become a member of our Citizen Science Team by contributing to our "MCBG Spring Field Day 2024" iNaturalist project. iNaturalist is a simple online tool that allows everyone to contribute to biodiversity science and connect with naturalists and other experts. It is fun and easy to use! Check out all of the species of plants, animals, bugs, and more that have already been observed by citizen scientists at MCBG through iNaturalist.
