🐝 Help protect pollinators AND learn how to be a Citizen Scientist!

The Great Southeast Pollinator Census is happening August 22–23, and the Land Trust of North Alabama is hosting two local pollinator counts:
📍 Harvest Square | Aug. 22, 3–5 PM
📍 Blevins Gap | Aug. 23, 3–5 PM

Pollinators like bees and butterflies are vital to our food and ecosystems, but their numbers are declining. By counting alongside scientists and volunteers, you’ll help gather essential data to protect them.

🌞 Bring water, wear sunscreen, and come ready to buzz around with some science fun

Let’s help a fellow mom out! 💙

Her son is turning 5 soon and still needs pull-ups at night, sometimes even soaking through them. She’s tried all the things: limiting water before bed, making sure he potties first, waking him up in the night, even switching to underwear so he can “feel” it. Nothing seems to help.

If you’ve been there, what worked for your family? Or maybe the best advice is a little reassurance that he’s not alone. Let’s share some wisdom (and encouragement) with this mama. 💕
