Join Maria Kennedy from the Native Plant Trust to learn about the Plant Conservation Volunteer (PCV) program, a regional community science network established in 1993 as part of the New England Plant Conservation Program (NEPCoP). Each year, hundreds of PCVs and professional scientists visit unique natural communities across all six New England states to monitor rare plants, collect seeds, and undertake habitat management projects – all with the ultimate goal of protecting the region’s rarest native species.
6 to 7:30 p.m. at the Harris Center. Space is limited, and registration is required. For more information, including questions about accessibility, contact Eric Masterson.
