Winter Explorations is a series of walks exploring nature in our local surroundings during the winter months. The walks are conducted by Conrad and Claudia Vispo of the Farmscape Ecology Program and focus on winter botany (woody and herbaceous plants), observing evidence of active winter animals, and exploring the visible interactions of human and natural history.
The group plans to visit several areas over the course of three walks this winter. The first walk was to have happened last month, however, the second is this Sunday (January 13, 2008) and the third is scheduled for Sunday, February 3, 2008.
Sunday’s walk is planned to happen at New Forge state forest, however, the final decision on that location will be made tomorrow (Saturday).
