This collaboration and recording of local plants, animals, insects, fungi and more is intended to build local knowledge, strengthen relationships and lay the groundwork for ongoing community stewardship and ecological monitoring along Marsh Creek.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/e7fccc10-b7d4-11f1-a0c3-dd4f6ea92b07-rimg-w1200-h600-dcf8f8f8-gmir.jpg The Bioblitz is FREE to attend and will offer iNaturalist training, informative learning materials about local wildlife, drop-in exploration and activities for all ages, as well as scheduled walks, workshops and conversations on specific themes and species.
