Gall and Leafminer Blitz

Join us for a Gall and Leafminer blitz in Cades Cove on Friday, November 17th from 10am to 3pm. This is a free and family friendly event!

This is a great time of year to look for signs of insects and other arthropods in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This is a great opportunity to do some community science and learn something new!

We will use the free iNaturalist app to record our findings, so it’s helpful to download the app and create an account, prior to the event.

To register for free, send an email to Jaimie Matzko at: jaimie@dlia.org

Meet at the entrance of Cades Cove at the informational kiosk at 10am, EST. See map below for directions.
