Step into the heart of the Upland Wildlife Festival at our Educational Booths area. Where science meets discovery. Talk with wildlife professionals and conservation organizations as they share hands-on activities, live demonstrations, and real-world stories about protecting Georgia’s native habitats. 

Learn about prescribed fire, native planting, reptile conservation, upland bird restoration, pollinators, and more while exploring interactive exhibits designed for curious kids and adults alike. It’s a chance to meet the people working behind the scenes to keep Georgia wild.
