Soils! at Fitton Green with James Cassidy, October 23rd, 10 am
Join Greenbelt and OSU soil science expert James Cassidy for a trip to Fitton Green Natural Area. Let's gaze at Marys Peak and the valley floor and talk about the Missoula floods and the incredible hidden world of soil - the basis of human civilization! We will walk around the Allen Throop Loop, with some moderate elevation gain and a distance of 1-2 miles.
Due to the current surge in Covid-19 in our community, and for the health and safety of attendees and staff, we are requiring all attendees to be fully vaccinated and provide proof of vaccination before registration is complete.
Join Greenbelt and Don Boucher from Neighborhood Naturalist for a birding expedition through the west side of Bald Hill Farm in areas not open to public access. We'll be looking and listening for, and talking about birds of all feathers, with a special focus on turkeys. Are they native? Why are there so many? Are they detrimental to habitat conservation goals? Stuffing in the bird or no?
