🌿 BioBlitz

presented by the Green Jobs Academy at Rowan University

Free Outdoor Event | Saturday & Sunday | 10am-5pm

How many species can we find at the Fossil Park? Join our BioBlitz and become a citizen scientist for the weekend! Explore the Museum grounds, gardens, and Nature Trail while searching for and documenting the plants, insects, animals, and other organisms that call EFM home.

Whether you're a seasoned nature enthusiast or just curious about what lives in your own backyard, the BioBlitz is a fun, hands-on way to discover local biodiversity and learn how scientists observe and document the natural world.

Birds BioBlitz on Saturday, September 19, 12:00pm -4:00pm

Presented by the Flight Club at Rowan University.

Join us to learn how birding and biodiversity monitoring can serve as accessible entry points into environmental and sustainability careers. Enjoy discovering new ways to identify birds you might encounter in your daily outings, and how you could turn these observations into citizen science.

You can also participate in a non-invasive study exploring how purposive nature-based activities may lower your body’s stress levels (using saliva-based cortisol test strips).

Flight Club lead researchers Dr. Olga Vilceanu and Dr. Jerry Hough (Rowan University).

Study participants receive a raffle ticket toward winning gear for birding and other nature-based activities. Raffle held at 4:00 p.m. and winners must be present to win as all surveys are anonymous.
