Unleash Your Inner Scientist
We gardeners are researchers by nature. We love to keep track of fun facts like what date certain flowers bloom, how long it takes our vegetables to ripen, and what time of year our favorite birds arrive in our gardens—and we're not shy about sharing this information with anyone within earshot.
If your friends and family members seem to be avoiding you when you try to regale them with yet another story about your newest garden discovery, here are some folks who will listen! It's a new program for "citizen scientists" called Project BudBurst.
In an effort to track how global climate change is affecting the life cycles of various plants, a group of universities and research organizations is asking backyard gardeners to observe everything from first leaves to first fruit on a variety of trees, shrubs, flowers, and grasses. It's easy—just sign up, fill out your observation form, and submit it.
Unleash your inner scientist and help solve some of nature's mysteries—sign up for Project BudBurst!
