Description

How can a forest tell you about itself? Read between the trees with Museum Educator Allison Gergely. Forests and woodlands cover about 75% of Vermont’s land area.  From the time of glacial retreat to now, forests have regularly risen and fallen, influenced by the effects of climate conditions, natural disasters, and human activity. How does a forest develop? What are its vertical and horizontal profiles? Which stories, or layers, define a maturing forest? Forest-dwelling birds use different sections of the forest column to satisfy an array of needs. Which birds can be found in Vermont’s forests …and where?  Look to the trees to find Stories in the Forest. Please dress for weather. Face masks required when we are within 6 feet of each other. Max: 5 people   Free, suggested donation $10 If you are a family group with more than 5 members, please contact us. If the walk fills, but there's enough interest, we may be able to schedule more walks. Call or email [email protected], or call (802) 434-2167. #NatureWalk #VermontForests #StoriesEverywhere
