Join Tufts Pollinator Initiative experts for a guided pollinator safari. We will watch fierce predators hunting prey, spy tiny herbivores grazing on leaves, and witness the spectacle of animal migration…all in the middle of the city. Safaris are suitable for all ages, especially kids, and everyone will get a chance to get up close with our gentle urban pollinators. We hold regular pollinator safaris throughout the year, and in a variety of locations–we hope you can make it!
If you are interested in bringing a TPI Pollinator Safari to your garden, park, or club please get in touch!
