Community Conversation: Plants, Bugs, and Ecology

THURSDAY, MAY 6, 5 TO 6:15 P.M. || MOSQUITO CONTROL HEADQUARTERS AT 2100 LEON C. SIMON

Grab a spot on the grass next to the newly planted wildflower meaow, and join a conversation on plants, bugs, and ecology in urban areas. Ecology and evolutionary biologist Dr. Jelagat Cheruiyot and NOMRTCB entomologist Dr. Jennifer Breaux will share their perspectives on the interactions of plants, bugs, soil, and water, and lead an open conversation on the ecology of neighborhoods like Gentilly and urban areas like New Orleans. We will use the trees, wildflowers, grasses, weeds, roadways, and infrastructure that is around us to explore each of these topics.

Open to all!

(RAIN DATE: Wednesday, May 12 at 5 p.m.)
