Butterflies and Moths

Saturday, September 6, 2025, 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM

The Amboy 4-H Environmental Education Center is excited to announce a new program for all ages titled Butterflies and Moths. This hands-on program is designed for people of all ages, and will introduce participants to moths and butterflies through both indoor and outdoor activities. Come see your favorite winged insects up close, get your hands messy making a wildflower seed ball, and try using a sweep net.

This program offers a unique opportunity for people to connect with nature, learn about local butterfly and moth species, and develop an appreciation for wildlife in a fun and interactive setting.

While space is limited, registration is open to all — residency in Oswego County is not required.

Philosophy

The best way to learn about ecology is to be out in it! Amboy 4-H Environmental Education Center is a laboratory where youth and adults can observe nature first hand, alone or under the guidance of one of the Center’s Environmental Educators. Public programs often feature guest presenters who are recognized leaders in the fields of wildlife management, outdoor education, and botany. It is also the Center’s belief that learning should be fun.
