3rd Annual Bird ID, Ecology & Habitat Management Workshop at Stone Fence Farm

Join Phil Brown, Matt Tarr, and others for a morning of birding and learning at Stone Fence Farm, a property owned and managed for a diversity of native species by professional foresters Jeremy Turner and Laura French.

Through easygoing, moderate walking tours in a variety of field, forest, and wetland habitats, we’ll learn tips for identifying the birds we encounter by sight and sound; the ecology and habitat needs of those species; how past timber and field management have created habitat opportunities for birds; and how the forests, fields, and wetlands we see can be managed to enhance habitat for birds and other wildlife. In between walks, we’ll take a break to enjoy wood-fired fruit pies (provided by Jeremy and Laura) and shade-grown Costa Rican coffee brewed by Ignacio Oreamuno of Troubardour Coffee. Bring binoculars and your favorite field guide to birds, and come prepared for biting insects. Beginning birders welcome!

Rain date: June 9.

Optional camping onsite and pizza dinner on Friday. Continuing education credits for foresters are available.
