The Great Southeast Pollinator Census
August 23-24, 2024
The University of Georgia Extension is sponsoring the Great Southeast Poliinator Census and everyone is invited to join the fun. Details on what to count, how to count, and where to send your results are on the Extension's website.
​
You can gather your friends and make it a party or join any number of groups participating in the count. It's fun and you will be contributing to the information needed to protect our pollinators.
