Art & Exploration series starting with Butterfly vs. Moth on Sunday, July 6th at 10am

 

Join us on Saturday, July 6th at 10am to learn the difference between moths and butterflies through easy origami!  Using field guides, you can create a real local species or make up your own.  We will then look for butterflies and moths in the field.  A limited supply of host plant seeds will be available. At Blackstone Field, across from the Narragansett Boat Club (2 River Rd. aka River Dr., Providence, RI 02906).  Check the 15 Minute Field Trips Facebook page for weather updates.
