“I have a little brown cocoon of an idea that may possibly expand into a magnificent moth of fulfilment.”
Our “little brown cocoon of an idea” is to have an evening where we celebrate creatures that come out at night as well as all of the wonderful people who come to Wintergreen throughout the year. Please join us for an evening of merriment, moth gazing, and a little bit of bubbly!
We will begin with dinner at 6:30 pm. As the sun sets, we will move outdoors to the site where we will have set up a large white sheet and special lamps to attract the moths. With luck, we will attract a wide variety of moths as the evening unfolds. And even better, Hilbert Buist will help us photograph and identify them!
