BioBlitz Prizes!

Feeling up for a challenge? Make observations of as many wild plants and pollinators as you can, because landing yourself at the top of a BioBlitz leaderboard will earn you a grand prize pack.

At the end of the BioBlitz, the participant who has observed the most total species and the participant who has the most total observations during the challenge will each receive a grand prize pack. Limit one grand prize per person--if the top participant in each category is the same person, the second prize pack will go to the runner-up for total species observed.

Each grand prize pack includes:

  • A private one-hour native plant tour of Halyburton Park, led by park staff, highlighting unique and rare local plant species (to be scheduled before December 1st)
  • A $25 gift certificate to Shelton Herb Farm
  • An N.C. Aquariums gift pack
  • A free week-long rental of a Halyburton Park kids' discovery backpack, full of outdoor exploration gear


    If competition's not your style, there are still other prizes to be won! Earn an entry into the wildcard prize raffle by doing any or all of the following:
    1) Make an observation of our featured plant, milkweed (gardened plants count!)
    2) Make an observation in each of the four scavenger hunt categories (gardened plants count!)
    3) Bonus entry if you have an observation of a wild native plant in each of the scavenger hunt categories

    Wildcard raffle prizes include:
  • N.C. Aquariums gift packs
  • Halyburton Park kids' discovery backpack rentals
  • Yaupon Tea Co. samples and merch
  • ...and more!

    Prize pickup will be hosted at the New Hanover County Arboretum, and prize winners will be contacted through iNaturalist. Winners will be announced on Sunday, September 19th and further prize pickup information will be shared at that time.

    A huge thank you to our prize sponsors: Shelton Herb Farm, Halyburton Park, Yaupon Tea Co., and the N.C. Aquarium at Fort Fisher!
