Looking at the calendar, it looks like we have filled up October with field days working with local schools! We are excited for more days in November out in the field, to accommodate excited teachers to get their students outside. We are hoping for a very temperate November, lets all hope for a beautiful fall.
Last week was our first outings with Sisters Middle school, out at Camp Polk Meadow. The 7th and 8th graders collected a lot of information about the flora and fauna of Whychus Creek for their end project of field guide for the creek. We are starting to work with REALMS this week. They will be learning about general information about Ryan Ranch, the history, and the proposed restoration project for Ryan Ranch. The students will also have an introduction into the plants that can be found in the area to prepare them for the next outing when they will be collecting data from a preset transect. This will be happening this Wednesday and Thursday, so look for an update and fun pictures later this week.
