Learn how to identify glossy buckthorn (Frangula alnus)and common buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica), how to remove them mechanically with no chemicals, and about our larger restoration plan for this crucial buffer between the land and canal.
4H Summer Science Camp: Nature Awareness and Ecological Restoration, Aug 6, 10AM - 2PM
Curious about how to learn who lives in wild areas through sharpening your awareness? Ever wonder how to take care of wild areas that need support to recover health? If so, join Mycolab team of nature mentors and scientists to learn and practice these skills in a fragile urban wild with other Vermont youth. We will play nature awareness games, practice skills, learn to: use field guides, identify creatures living on the land, record species' presence to protect the land, work with a map and compass, and practice basic skills on how to restore an ecosystem.
Abenaki Panel: Date TBD Spring-Fall 2023
Come listen to Abenaki elders about their childhood memories and ancestral knowledge about this area, so sacred to their people who lived here for thousands of years before colonial devastation occured.
