Phenology at MBBG

Wednesday, April 16 • 7pm–9pm

Phenology is a great way to immerse yourself in nature, learn more about plants, and hone your observational skills. It’s also a less physically demanding means of volunteering – you simply sit/stand/walk and make notations.

Our garden staff is looking to train a cohort of volunteers that will lead and maintain our phenology program and/or participate in data collection.

Tasks will include, among other things:

• Helping the group to determine a focus area and/or specific research question

• Learning phenology protocols

• Becoming familiar with Nature’s Notebook, the National Phenology Network’s data collection app

• Educating other volunteers about phenology and teaching specific observation protocols

• Organizing volunteer hours to ensure regular and continuous data collection

Come learn about phenology and discuss the direction of our program!

Join us in the Garden’s Banyan Room • Free to attend, please RSVP
