In the two weeks between Mother’s Day and Memorial Day, many of our thoughts turn to gardening. Join us to share lep host or nectar plants, as well as eggs/caterpillars to add to fellow members’ collections or to help someone start a new collection. In addition, feel free to bring books or other helpful resources.Come out and meet new members, get reacquainted with long-term members, and help one another unlock new lep achievements. If you’re thinking of getting into raising leps or curious about new species, our members can answer your questions.
Along with all that, we’ll also be joined by John Robinson, an NHSM volunteer with several decades of experience studying plant communities and the critters that inhabit them. An entertaining storyteller and raconteur, John will share anecdotes from his observations of the natural world.
This event will take place in person at 6908 Belair Rd. You do not need to be a member to attend. For planning purposes, an RSVP. is much appreciated.
If you love butterflies and moths, consider joining the NHSM Lep Club. The Lep Club is made up of novice and expert lepidopterists who meet to exchange knowledge and support concerning habitat, threats, food sources, identification, and life cycle of butterflies and moths. Club meetings encourage a sharing of knowledge for the raising and breeding of moths and butterflies through hands-on lessons and guest speakers. Club members are also involved in outreach in the greater Baltimore community through educational programs and service projects. Most club meetings feature a guest speaker who shares their knowledge on a topic related to moths and butterflies. Meetings also include time to distribute caterpillars and eggs.
