Wetland Workshop
August 13, 2022 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
$15
Join Coldharbour Institute and Lynn Cudlip (Wetland Specialist) to an in person workshop to learn about our connections to wetlands in our valley and how they store and protect our water. We’ll touch on a variety of things from natural wetlands versus irrigated wetlands to the Clean Water Act. The “class” will be an outdoor extravaganza in recognizing, contemplating, measuring, and relishing our valley’s wetlands. It will be held at Coldharbour Institute’s Ranch and will be fully outdoors. Come ready for a hands on exploratory opportunity. Wear clothes and shoes you wouldn’t mind getting dirty and wet. Email [email protected] or visit https://www.coldharbourinstitute.org/wetland-workshop.html to learn more.
