SUMMARY:Increasing habitat for rare butterflies in MI - Nov. 5\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:Increasing habitat for rare butterflies in Michigan\nMany people are planting for pollinators in Michigan\, which is wonderful for all of our bees and butterflies.  However\, there are some plants (and the butterflies that depend on them) that often get overlooked. In this talk we will cover a project at MSU that is looking to expand availability of local Michigan seed sources\, as well as increasing the diversity in our plantings\, so not all sites are using the same mixes.  Come hear about how we are working with farmers to increase MI native seed production\, as well as what plants to consider to support some of Michigan’s more rare pollinators. \nMeghan Milbrath is an assistant professor in the Department of Entomology at Michigan State University\, where she is the coordinator of the Michigan Pollinator Initiative.  Her appointment is split between research and extension\, and she works with beekeepers\, land managers\, and pesticide applicators to support pollinator health in the state.  She also is a beekeeper and runs The Sand Hill Bee Farm in Jackson County. \n\nDate: Wednesday\, Nov. 5\, 2025 \nTime: 6:00 p.m. \nLocation: Dahlem Center\, 7117 South Jackson Rd.\, Jackson\, MI \nReserve your seat – Registration fee: $5 per adult. Registration form below. \nThis adult program is part of the Conservation Series presented by Jackson Conservation District and Dahlem Conservancy.

SUMMARY:Explore the Night - Nov. 13\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:Let’s explore the night life as we quietly venture down the moonlit trails using our nocturnal senses. Remember\, night is when many animals are most active. Who might we hear rustling nearby and calling out in the eerie silent night off in the distance? Do you have night vision\, what color do you see\, and what is that unique odor we smell? The cool fresh air feels energizing. \nAll participants are required to register in advance\, and space is limited to 24 participants. Please dress for the weather\, bring a small flashlight (red lens preferred) to carry in your pocket\, and be ready to walk a one to two miles.  Recommended for ages 12 and up. In the event of a rainy evening\, tickets will be applied to a rescheduled date.\n\n\n.\nDate: November 13\, 2025  Thursday\n\n\n\n\n\nTime: 6:00 pm\nPrice: Free for Members\, $5 for Non-member\, and $12 Non-Member Family\nMaximum 24 people\nCancellation Policy: We have a 24 hour cancellation policy. If you don’t call to cancel and don’t show\, you will be charged the full amount.
