February 7 Winter Tree Identification

Stop by Fairview Farm any time between 1:30 and 3:30 to make a special valentine for your favorite animal (humans included)!

This program is free, but donations will be accepted to help cover the cost of supplies.
 
  February 20 Bluebird Nest Box Review

This program is for those who would like to learn how to properly locate, take care of and monitor a bluebird nest box at home, and for volunteers who would like to help monitor the URWA’s Bluebird Next boxes at various sites across the watershed in 2010. This program will be held outdoors and will involve some walking (at times through tall grass), so please dress appropriately! Long pants, tall socks and sneakers are suggested.
