Lichens of the Riverway
January 26, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Free
Tune in and turn your lunch hour into the best part of your day through Wild Rivers Conservancy’s limited webinar series, Lunch & Learn. We’ll explore topics that resonate throughout the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway and bring the experts to the comfort of your home, office, or wherever you may find yourself. Cozy up, grab lunch, and get ready to learn about the natural resources of the St. Croix and Namekagon Rivers.
Learn about local Lichens from expert Joe Walewski of Wolf Ridge Environmental Learning Center. Lichens are all around us, but it takes effort to notice them! Once you begin to see them, you’ll start seeking them out everywhere you go. Joe will share images and stories of discovering lichens in the St. Croix and Namekagon Riverway and tips for identifying lichens anywhere else you might explore. Together, we will learn the basics of lichen biology, ecology, and observation.
