In the Zone, Part 2: Caring for the Water Through the Forest – POSTPONED
September 14 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
In the Zone: A Two-Part Exploration of Riparian Buffers
POSTPONED to SPRING
at Columcille Megalith Park | 2155 Fox Gap Road, Bangor, PA
The plants growing in and around our ponds, streams, and wetlands are vital to the broader ecosystem. But new challenges – from introduced pests and diseases to climate change – threaten their survival. In the face of these challenges, how can we help these plant communities thrive?
Learn about establishing and maintaining riparian forests with Conservation Easement Stewards Sebastian Harris and Katie Toner. Plus, get hands-on experience planting and protecting tree saplings. We’ll be gathering and planting at Columcille Megalith Park, a sprawling park that brings together wildlife habitat and Celtic-inspired art, protected in perpetuity by a conservation easement. Please carpool if possible.
This event is the second of Heritage Conservancy’s 2-part series of in-person classes about riparian buffers. (Register for one or both.)
If you would like to be added to the waitlist, please contact Katie Toner at ktoner@heritageconservancy.org.
Registration fees: $10 for conservation easement landowners and active supporters, $30 for the general public.
