Want to learn about the wonderous moths of the Lowcountry and how we can support them with native plants?!
Join us at @hedhistudio (Hed Hi Media, 654 King St, Ste D, Charleston, SC 29403) April 9th at 6 PM!
RVSP at themarshproject.com
Eric LoPresti is a professor at the University of South Carolina and has been surveying moths in the Santee Delta for the past few years! Come learn about our mothy friends and the "golden age" of citizen science and public engagement. We’ll also hear of The MOTH PROJECT!!! started by a dedicated amateur in 1965, a nightly moth sampling from 1965 to 1976, that created one of the best snapshots of moth communities in the world. It happened right here in Charleston County.
Sharleen Johnson from NPTTP will share native plant suggestions to support moth populations in our own yards and will be pre-selling some moth-loving native plants.
And Luther’s Food Truck will be slinging delicious goodness on site.
