Wild Ones of Central North Carolina Chapter and the North Carolina Sierra Club Foothills Group, in collaboration with the Town of Lewisville, NC and the Gateway Nature Preserve in Winston-Salem, NC, are pleased to invite you to this extraordinary program focused on the importance of ecological restoration. The tour of the Gateway Nature Preserve in Winston-Salem, NC is led by Salvador Patino, Co-Chair of the Preserve with the exclusive participation of renowned author and conservationist, Heather Holm.
In the tours of the Gateway Nature Preserve and the grounds of the Mary Alice Warren Community Healing Center, Heather Holm explains how that in urban environments, natural landscapes that were once biodiverse and contiguous have been transformed to small and often highly degraded fragments. What potential do these sites hold for ecological restoration, pollinator habitat, and public demonstration sites? How does one go about restoring a site such as this? Step one is developing a plan that includes goals, objectives, and methods. Heather will address these steps and highlight some of the challenges, opportunities, and amazing outcomes that have unfolded in her neighborhood corner lot restoration. She will also discuss pollinator habitat enhancement and management considerations and celebrate the diverse pollinator populations that can thrive in the landscape.
The program is free. However, registration is required. The Eventbrite link is in the comment section.
