Great Florida Pollinator Census - Collier County

This project is part of the Great Southeast Pollinator Census, a fun and impactful citizen science effort led by the University of Georgia and supported locally by the Collier County UF/IFAS Extension and Friends of Collier County Butterflies.

No experience needed. All ages welcome. Just 15 minutes can make a difference.

🐝 What’s It All About?

Pollinators like bees, butterflies, wasps, beetles, and flies are vital to our environment. This event invites anyone and everyone to step outside, observe a flowering plant, andcount the pollinators you see. That’s it!
