* Great Southeast Pollinator Census is Aug. 22-23. The annual Great Southeast Pollinator Census helps scientists gather data about pollinators so they can better protect these critical members of the ecosystem. If one would like to participate, drop by the Smyrna Recycling Center at 3475 Lake Drive in Smryna and pick up a counting sheet. Participants can then observe in the Pollinator Pocket garden located at the center. This is an independent, self-directed activity. One can also take part in the census from any location.
