Jasper County Conservation Board will host an Older, Wiser, Livelier Seniors (OWLS) program on Wednesday, May 13 at the Jasper County Armory/Annex Building in Newton. The public is invited to come for 10:00 a.m. coffee and a movie.Peek into the world of nature’s tiniest superheroes. We’re hosting a special screening of The Extraordinary Caterpillar, a beautifully shot 60-minute documentary that reveals the vital—and often overlooked—role caterpillars play in our ecosystems. From blooming meadows to city parks and backyard gardens, this inspiring film celebrates the magic of nature while showing families practical ways to make a difference. Along the way, you’ll see the groundbreaking work of The Caterpillar Lab, entomologist David Wagner, and Doug Tallamy, co-founder of Homegrown National Park.
The OWLS program is a conservation program that encourages seniors to stay active and learn new things about the natural world.
