Gardening for Nature Part 2 The Magical World of Fireflies

Knippenberg Center for Education The Magical World of Fireflies Presented by Lourdes Osorio.    

Probably no living creature immerses humans into a magical realm as much as fireflies, or lightning bugs, do! Yet, few of us know much about them or how to protect them. As their numbers decline worldwide and face extinction, learn what steps you can take to protect them. Learn about their life cycle, what makes them glow, how they have inspired humanity throughout the ages, and best gardening practices to protect them. After this fascinating lecture, we will walk a section of the arboretum.
