Community Science for the Barge Canal

Past event
Nov 13, 2022, 3 to 5 PM

Newbie naturalists, amateurs, and professionals are welcome to join Friends of the Barge Canal and MycoEvolve in supporting Community Science for the Barge Canal on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of each month from 3-5 PM through November. The next one is this Sunday 9/25.

We will discover who lives in this fragile riparian ecosystem (mammals, reptiles, amphibians, flora, fungi, invertebrates, birds) and record it for a baseline inventory. Bring binoculars, hand lenses, field guides, phones for pictures and iNaturalist entries, and your enthusiasm! If you have a naturalist specialty, feel free to contact Jess (www.mycoevolve.net) and you can lead a tier of the group that day to focus on your specialty.

This parcel of land on Unceded Abenaki Territory is a Brownfield Site abutting a Superfund Site and has the potential to become a long-term conserved restoration - remediation - rematriation education center and living laboratory for the local community.
