Calling all botanists, herpetologists, birders, and anyone who loves the outdoors!!

You’re invited to a seminar by Dr. Eric LoPresti on how we can all contribute to natural history, at 7pm this Thursday, November 13, at the Columbia Garden Club Council building.

We especially encourage members of USC’s student chapter of the Botanical Society of America to attend this SC Native Plant Society Midlands Chapter meeting for our Fall 2025 event.

Also, stay tuned for details about an upcoming pollinator garden workday at the Biology Community Garden! We expect to build some beds in December or early spring, so save your seeds now for planting season.

Together, we’ll investigate how prescribed burns shape Southeastern pine communities and how these forests may be vulnerable to insect damage. Along the way, you’ll sharpen your research skills by refining methods, collecting and analyzing data, and tackling the challenges every scientist faces.
