The Cupola House and Gardens, Great Southeast Pollinator Census Count
Event Description: 

Come participate in this annual event sponsored by the Chowan County Extension Service. Join us to get involved in pollinator health and preservation! The Great Southeast Pollinator Census is a Citizen Science project that encourages counting pollinator interactions in our community. We will be learning about pollinators and native plants, and exploring the beautiful Cupola House Gardens, hosting children's activities and more! We hope to see you there! 

How does the census work?
Participants will meet with Extension Master Gardener Volunteers at the welcome table and grab their counting materials, including a tally sheet. Participants will then choose one of the identified pollinator-friendly plants in the Cupola House and monitor the plant for 15 minutes to see how many times a pollinator or pollinators interact with their chosen plant. After the timer is up, participants turn in their tally sheet and explore some of the other educational activities and fun at this event!

Age limit:
