Chris Garza from CTMS, Siglo Group and The Trail Conservancy are organizing Holly Shore’s first-ever BioBlitz event, and we would welcome your participation. Mushroom walk starts at 9 am.

A BioBlitz is an event that brings experts and community members together to create a comprehensive list of an area’s existing biodiversity. During the event, participants will try to observe and report as many species as possible in a specific area, working with local experts to ID the species they see and iNaturalist. 

The data collected at the Holly Shores BioBlitz will assist The Trail Conservancy in conducting restoration projects in the area moving forward. This will not only help to ensure that the existing biodiversity is protected but also that the restoration actions are improving the biodiversity. 

The event will be held at Holly Shores Park from 8 am to 12 pm on Saturday, April 29th, coinciding with the 2023 City Nature Challenge. 

No identifying experience is needed. Everyone is welcome.

*All ages are welcome to the event. Minors (under 15) must be accompanied by an adult, parent, or guardian. Those under 13 do not need to register through POINT but must fill out the Liability and Photo Release Form
