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! We provide the boats, paddles, and life jackets, you provide the paddle power!

Join us for another installment of our Community Campfire series! The topic for this campfire is edible plants. Departing from the Wachtmeister Field Station, we'll explore nearby trails for a few identifiable and edible plants that can be found around the North Country. Following our exploration, we'll return to the campfire for s'mores, and for the brave, a taste of what they collected.

Stop by between 7:00pm - 9:00pm on Friday, June 19th!

Our summer community campfire series is back!

Our first campfire of the year will be investigating the world of amphibians! Early June is the perfect time to find frogs, toads, salamanders, and more! The Kip Trail is the perfect ecosystem as well, with seasonal vernal pools all over the place and the Little River right next door. We're bound to find all sorts of critters.
