Peek into the world of nature’s tiniest superheroes!
The Penn State Extension Master Gardeners of Wyoming County are hosting a free community screening of The Extraordinary Caterpillar, a beautifully-shot 60-minute documentary that reveals the vital – and often overlooked – role caterpillars play in our ecosystem.

From blooming meadows to city parks and backyard gardens, this inspiring film celebrates the magic of nature while showing families practical ways to make a difference. Along the way, you’ll see the groundbreaking work of The Caterpillar Lab, entomologist David Wagner, and Doug Tallamy, co-founder of Homegrown National Park.
You’ll learn inspiring stories about why caterpillars are essential to healthy ecosystems and simple steps you can take to create habitat in your home and community landscapes. The Master Gardeners will host a short Q&A session following the film and provide educational handouts. This is an opportunity to see nature in a whole new light.
The event is offered free of charge.
Tickets are available at the Dietrich Theater ticket booth or by calling the Dietrich Theater at 570-836-1022 x3.
