SUMMARY:Tending Your Yard\, Tending the Earth Lincoln Event: Moth Ball
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n\nThere’s a whole world that wakes up after su
 nset  and most of us sleep right through it. This summer\, we’re stayin
 g up for it.\n\nJoin us for Moth Ball 2026\, an evening with the quiet\, 
 clever\, criminally underrated pollinators who keep our ecosystems running
  long after the bees have called it a night. Co-sponsored by Grow Native 
 Massachusetts\, the event features entomologist Teá Montagna\, who speci
 alizes in Lepidoptera — the order that includes both moths and butterfli
 es. With her expert eye to guide us\, we’ll explore the surprising diver
 sity of moths living right in our own backyards.\n\nArrive at sunset for
  a tour of the garden led by Leisha Johnson of GardensByTheYard.com\, who
  designed and tends this 1.5-acre former turf lawn\, now a thriving habita
 t that shows the power of rewilding in action. Then\, as night falls\, we
 ’ll set up light traps and white sheets to draw in a wide range of mot
 h species for an up-close look. Bring a camera and you can photograph and 
 document your sightings on iNaturalist\, turning a night in the garden in
 to real biodiversity data.\n\n\nWhat to bring to our Moth Ball 2026\n\n- A
  camera or cell phone\n\n- Bug repellent — you’ll be outdoors after d
