The Abundant Life in Old & Dead Trees
with Margery Winters
Wednesday, October 16th
7:00-8:30 p.m.
Perrot Memorial Library
The Greenwich Tree Conservancy and Perrot Memorial Library are joining together to bring you this informative talk from Margery Winters on the importance of declining and dead trees.
Once considered a wasted resource and a hazard in forest landscapes, dead trees and logs are now known to be valuable and essential parts of a healthy forest ecosystem. Join Margery Winters, Assistant Director and instructor at Roaring Brook Nature Center in Canton, to learn how dead and dying trees provide habitat and food for many terrestrial and aquatic species, act as seedbeds for new trees, and serve as a source of water, energy, carbon, and nutrients for the entire forest.
