In this lively, in-person workshop, you’ll meet different species of reptiles and amphibians — from beginner level companions to the more challenging exotics — with insights on their unique needs, personalities, and habitats. You will also have the rare opportunity to touch and interact with a few under supervision.

  • Jan 13 Lunch and Learn: The Basics of Pruning Pruning is the practice of cutting away certain parts of a plant - usually branches, stems, or buds - to help it grow better. The main idea is to remove what the plant doesn't need so it can focus its energy on healthy growth. Timothy Daly the Agriculture and Natural Resources Agent for the Henry County Extension Office will discuss the basics of pruning and answer any questions that may arise.
    • McDonough,, GA - (23.0 Miles)
  • Jan 13 Do it for the Plot: Journaling and SMART Goals Turn ideas into action with a creative journaling and SMART-goal workshop.
