Join Phil Brown, Matt Tarr, and others for a morning of birding and learning at Stone Fence Farm, a property owned and managed for a diversity of native species by professional foresters Jeremy Turner and Laura French. Through easygoing, moderately paced walks in a variety of habitats, we’ll explore tips for identifying birds by sight and sound, learn about their ecology and habitat needs, and see how forests, fields, and wetlands can be managed to enhance habitat for birds and other wildlife. Between walks, we’ll take a break to enjoy wood-fired fruit pies (courtesy of Jeremy and Laura) and shade-grown Costa Rican coffee brewed by Ignacio Oreamuno of Troubardour Coffee. Bring binoculars and your favorite field guide, and come prepared for biting insects and variable weather. Beginning birders welcome!
Optional camping onsite and pizza dinner on Saturday evening. Continuing education credits for foresters are available.
Cost: $35/person. Scholarships are available (for more information, contact Miles Stahmann). Space is limited, and registration is required.
For questions about this particular outing or to reserve a camping space, contact Laura by May 31. (Please note there is no rain date for the event this year.)
Co-sponsored by: Harris Center for Conservation Education, Meadowsend Consulting Company, Troubardour Coffee, and the Forest Stewards Guild.
