Author Event: Gardening for Moths

Join us as we learn how moths are inextricably intertwined with native plants, bats, birds, and the whole of the eastern deciduous forest ecosystem. They also play an enormous role in the pollination of native plants and are often far more interesting than butterflies, both visually and behaviorally. This talk will be a pictorial journey into an intriguing and little known world that unfolds all around us.
