Local Educational Nature Walk

Past event
Oct 21, 2018, 9 AM to 12 PM

This is an outing led by one of the participants of the South Burlington Master Naturalist program; all are welcome.

I would like to lead a walk at the Muddy Brook Wetland Reserve on Sunday October 21st from 9 am until 12 noon.
The reserve is located at 300 Van Sicklen Road in South Burlington.

On that morning we will discuss the history of the reserve - a land swap with the Burlington Airport to mitigate development of wetlands for the Airport. We will learn about what makes a wetland a wetland; the many different types of wetlands; plant and animal adaptations to the particular challenges of living in wetlands; the history of wetland loss and federal and state laws and programs to conserve and restore wetlands.
Parking at the reserve is limited so carpooling is encouraged.

For further information contact Fred Kosnitsky at 802 734-4373 or fredkosnitsky@yahoo.com.
