We hope that you can join the Fringed Campion Chapter on June 28, 2026 at 3 PM for a pollinator walk hosted by Rebecca Husted Gimenez and Mark Husted. This walk will explore their 25 acre property where they have been working to support pollinators and native plants.
This unique site contains multiple habitats, including swampland & riparian zones as well as more developed pasture spaces, and hosts a broad variety of unique pollinators and native plants.
Following the afternoon pollinator walk, participants are encouraged to stay on site if they would like to attend the evening Moth and Bat Watching Event.
Location
We will meet at Technical Large Animal Rescue (1787 GA-18, Macon, GA 31217). There is ample parking available.
