Insects

Join NCBP member Tracy Feldman for a program at Horseshoe Farm Nature Preserve in Raleigh.

Description: Pollination usually involves a relationship between plants and animals. Often it is beneficial to both plants and animals, yet  sometimes one partner deceives the other. We'll talk about the pollination process, and we'll look for pollinators on plants at Horseshoe Farm Preserve, documenting them on iNaturalist. Children must be accompanied by adults.  Pre-registration is required.
