SUMMARY:New Date: Fall Meadow Work Day at Forge Project
DESCRIPTION:Due to the unfavorable forecast for Thursday\, this event has been rescheduled. It now will take place on Friday\, Sept. 18. \nThe Farmscape Ecology Program has been involved in the transitioning of the former agricultural fields and traditionally landscaped areas into native meadows and shrublands that will feature native and culturally significant species. Guests can expect to learn some of the native plants we try to support and help remove invasives. This is a seasonal opportunity to participate hands-on in some of the remediation work happening onsite and learn how you can fold simple restoration practices into your own home spaces and gardens. \nBasic plant identification will be led by the Farmscape Ecology Program team\, and Paloma Wake\, Forge Project Operations Director\, will share about some of the shifts happening throughout the land at Forge Project and the organization’s ongoing relations with the Stockbridge Munsee Band of Mohicans\, the homeland people who this land belongs to and who belong to this land. \nGuests are asked to bring their own gardening gloves and hand tools if possible (for example a digging fork\, dandelion digger\, hand clippers\, and weed wrench); a water bottle; and a willingness to work together. Snacks and beverages will be provided by Forge Project. Introductions will be led at 4:15pm and 5:45pm\, and while participants are required to sign up for one session\, they are welcome to stay for both. Interested participants should register with the Forge Project via Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fall-meadow-work-day-tickets-1986821212731.

SUMMARY:Kinderhook Pine Barrens at Lindenwald (Tours)
DESCRIPTION:Tours of an experimental\, sandy “Kinderhook Pine Barrens” plot that was installed last year within the orchard and features the types of sand-frequenting plant species that may have historically populated Kinderhook when the area had pine barrens\, including when Martin Van Buren was growing up there. The Farmscape Ecology Program has identified the Kinderhook Pine Barrens as a “ghost” habitat now missing from our landscape\, and participants will not only visit the restoration and nearby wild-growing trees that may serve as pine barren remnants but also learn about this fascinating lost habitat. \nTours will be offered at 10:15\, 11:15\, 1:15\, and 2:15.
