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. Let guest speaker, Keelin Klein, UGA student and herpetology enthusiast, provide a deeper understanding of these neat animals, practical care tips, and maybe even introduce you to a new favorite scaly or slippery friend. This program qualifies for Master Gardener continuing education credit.
