Bears to Butterflies, Conservation Potential on Private Lands - In-Person
Schedule: Thursday 1/9/2025, 11:00 AM

We will talk about the nature of working land management that contributes to those successes and recognize those on the landscape who work hard to enhance the habitat on those lands. We will look at how those species are currently not just surviving on the lands but thriving and delve into practices, policy, and programs that will help to conserve these communities (plant, animal, and human) over the next 100 years.
Registration begins Monday, November 25. You will not be able to add any courses, offerings or events to your cart until that date.
