Parks for Pollinators Bioblitz

 

2024 Fall Pollinator Event | September 21st from 9am to 1pm

The City of Pasadena is partnering with Armand Bayou Nature Center for a fourth year with a fun fall pollinator event as a part of the national Parks for Pollinators campaign! Spring and summer are very important seasons for pollinators, but autumn is too! In the Houston area, there are many native plants that bloom in the fall such as goldenrod, snow on the prairie, swamp sunflowers, and blazing star that provide nourishment and sustain our native pollinators before the arrival of winter, including bees, butterflies, moths, and hummingbirds.

As a part of this event, the City of Pasadena will again be providing free admission to the first 100 people through our gate. After the first 100, guests can enter with regular admission for non-members.

Join us at the nature center on September 21 from 9am to 1pm to learn all about our native plants and pollinators and how you can become a pollinator champion and help them on their life journeys. Our activities will include:

  • Free admission for the first 100 people thru the gate (regular admission thereafter)

  • iNaturalist bioblitz contest with prizes

  • Pollinator garden demos

  • Seed ball making

  • Pollinator demos, games & more


Use this link to join us, along with parks throughout the country in this fun challenge to see how many pollinator species can be documented. https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/parks-for-pollinators-2024-city-of-pasadena-texas-parks-and-recreation
