If you’d like to join those who have already signed up\, please register below! \nThe books we are reading for May 29th are: 1) How to Love a Forest by Ethan Tapper and 2) Tug Hill Country by Harold E. Samson \nIn How to Love a Forest\, author Ethan Tapper\, Chittendon County Forester (VT) asks: what does it mean to live in a time in which ecosystems are in retreat and extinctions rattle the bones of the earth? How do we respond to the harmful legacies of the past? How do we use our species’ incredible power to heal rather than to harm? How do we reach towards a better future? This book is not in local libraries yet\, but is available online from a number of booksellers. \nIn Tug Hill Country\, Harold Samson’s first Tug Hill volume\, he describes this magnificent area of hardwood ridges\, stands of evergreen\, rock-strewn pastureland\, sliced every so often by the gorge of a roaring stream as having a mind of its own – as do the people who call it home. Tales from the early to mid-20th century give us a glimpse of past times\, maybe leading to a better understanding of Tug Hill’s present. This book is out of print but is widely available at local libraries throughout the Tug Hill region. \nAll registered will also receive an online meeting link by email shortly before the meeting date to join in online from home or another location if preferred. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Hemlock Woolly Adelgid Walk and Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Valentine’s Day guided Hemlock Woolly Adelgid (HWA) Walk and tree survey at Camden’s Forest Park on Friday\, January 14th from 10 am to Noon. We’ll take an easy walk\, stopping at points along the way with THTLT and SLELO PRISM (St. Lawrence-Eastern Lake Ontario Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management) staff to learn how to recognize Eastern Hemlock trees\, examine the trees on and off the trail\, and report observations using their smartphone through a free mobile application called iMapInvasives (a community science tool). \nHWA is an invasive insect that kills hemlock trees. The Eastern Hemlock is a key tree species found throughout Tug Hill that provides many benefits for people and nature. Detecting the presence of HWA early on provides enough time to protect infested trees and helps to stop the spread to new areas. It is easier to survey for HWA in colder months\, as the tiny insects form a woolly-looking ball of insulation around themselves that makes them more visible. \nParticipants should dress for the weather and expect some off-trail walking in order to survey trees. A ski pole or walking stick can help with walking off-trail as well as reaching branches above you. Sturdy waterproof footwear is recommended. If there is snow\, you are welcome to bring your snowshoes along. You might also want some water and/or a snack on hand. \nThe walk will take place in light rain or snow. We will monitor weather right up to the morning of our walk. If weather should turn severe and the event require rescheduling\, all registrants will be contacted by phone and email. \nPrior to attending\, participants should follow these steps: \n\nVideo Tutorial \nMake a Free iMapInvasives User Account \nDownload the Free iMapInvasives Mobile App \n\nRegister Here \n \n  \nThis event qualifies for the Tug Hill Winter Fun Challenge!
