Well, we have had a bit more rain, so let's get together to survey our local fields and forests. This will be a habitat walk, concentrating on learning about some of the local trees and the best places to look for different species as the season progresses. We may also come across a few edibles.
To help the club defray some of our costs such as insurance, speaker fees, facility rental, etc, there will be a modest fee for non-club members to come on the foray...
