Join us for another installment of our Community Paddle series! This week, we return to the upper Little River to observe the many dragonflies, damselflies, butterflies, and water skimmers that can be found. We'll cover some basic ID and biology ahead of our paddle so we can more easily tell what we find. Which one of these species do you think is a true bug? You'll have to come to find out!

Join us for another installment of our Community Campfire series!

This week, we'll be talking all things dirt. Is it just something we wash off our vegetables and clothes, or is it a window into the foundation of our ecosystems? We'll talk a bit about the soil triangle, what core building blocks make up our dirt, how to easily determine what kind of soil you have at home, and what the plants we see above ground might be telling us about the ecosystem beneath them.

As always, there will be s'mores, and we will be exploring the outdoors. We hope to see you there!

Join us for another installment of our Community Campfire series! The topic for this campfire is nature journaling.

Not the biggest fan of writing, but still want to get your thoughts and observations down on paper? Nature journaling is a different approach to record keeping and can help ground us in the moment. Led by our Summer Naturalist Cecily, this campfire will give you the skills to be an engaged and conscientious member of our natural community. No need to bring anything, we'll provide all the materials!
