About this Event

Join Earthwise Aware (EwA)'s participatory scientists. We'll guide you through monitoring phenology and biodiversity, including insect activity at our sites. These observation events contribute to biodiversity and climate science while enjoying the outdoors in our beautiful garden. No expertise required – beginners are welcome!

[Prepare] To prepare for the session, here's a short read & a few apps to install ☟

The Growing Center will be our gracious host, and we look forward to spending quality time together exploring its habitats and inhabitants. In preparation for such a wonderful opportunity, we invite you to read our short Acknowledgement of Biodiversity, Land, and People. Thanks!

To record with us, install a few free apps to get started. We use smartphones as data recording tools. If you don't have a smart device, don't worry – we'll pair you with someone who does. Here are the apps: EwA Survey projects » Instructions– install our app platform, then search for and join EwA Pheno Lite and EwA Buggy.

⚠ IMPORTANT: PLEASE DO NOT BE A NO-SHOW!!! Our offerings are free and frequently waitlisted, so if you cannot attend, please tell us a few days before the events so we can give your spot to another person who wants to participate. Thanks for your understanding and courtesy!
