PANCAKE SUNDAYS
at Kettle Ridge Farm
Maple season is upon us! Kettle Ridge Farm is running Pancake Sundays every Sunday from January 12th through March 9th. Joe Hurley invites us to walk up, place our order, grab a seat in the heated barn or hang outside by the fire. They do not take reservations for barn seating - only for optional igloo dining. For more information go to: https://www.kettleridgefarm.com/
Keep watch for more information about the Maple weekends in March.
Winter Plant ID Series at Muller Field Station and Cumming Nature Center
Sundays February 2 and 9 from 1 -3 PM
Join Maura Sullivan, FLCC Conservation Professor, and Cody Wilkes, Muller Field Station Manager, for a deep dive into the world of winter plant identification! This two-part workshop will focus on winter tree identification, but will also explore winter weed identification (and we won’t say no to identifying tracks, if the opportunity arises).
The first session will primarily be based indoors in the classroom at Muller Field Station, with a brief foray outside; the second session will take place at Cumming Nature Center and will take place mostly outdoors.
