We need your help counting our hard-working pollinators at the Youth Farm!

Protecting the Southeast's Pollinators One Count at a Time!

What to expect: The Great Southeast Pollinator Census is a citizen science project created by the University of Georgia. It is designed for everyone to participate and make a difference in pollinator conservation!

Visit the EMBARC Community Youth Farm Pollinator Garden to help count our hard-working Pollinators! You will be able to take turns counting how many types of pollinators land on different flowers for a short amount of time.

If you cannot come out, please visit this link to download the forms and count the pollinators in your yard and community. Every survey helps the science community collect real data!
