Thank you to our friends at Blue Ridge Wildlife Center for joining us at the Boat House this week! Attendees were able to learn about native wildlife and get up close and personal with some of their animal ambassadors.

Not only does Blue Ridge Wildlife Center do incredible educational programs, but they specialize in the rehabilitation of injured, orphaned, and sick wildlife. If you ever stumble across wildlife that seems like it might need some help, they are an excellent resource!

Thanks to all who donated their Christmas trees to us! We ended up with a 24 trees. 🌲

Many of these trees will be going into Cedar Pond in the Greens within the next week or two. Once submerged, the tree will provide shelter to support macroinvertebrates, aquatic vegetation, and small fish. 🐟 The ultimate result? A more dynamic and resilient aquatic ecosystem that supports biodiversity!

Learn from Taryn, our Director of Land Stewardship, about wavyleaf basketgrass! This grass is invasive and its spread can damage the forest understory.

This time of year wavyleaf basketgrass is going to seed and it’s important to know what it looks like so you don’t accidentally spread it to new locations!
