But no matter what we do\, come dressed for the weather and ready to get dirty.  \nAges 3 to 12

SUMMARY:01/27/2016 - Nature Matters: Climate Change and Native Plants
DESCRIPTION:Our local native flora is essentially tied to other aspects of the ecosystem\, including weather patterns. While many animals have the ability to move when conditions become rapidly unfavorable\, plants don’t have that option. Dr. Sara Via\, with the University of Maryland\, will lead us on an exploration of the effects our changing climate has on native plant communities and the animal populations they support. This intriguing lecture series focuses on local nature and conservation topics. Check-in and refreshments begin at 6:45pm\, and the one-hour lecture followed by Q & A begins at 7 pm.  \nAges 14 & up \nTo Register\, please visit: https://apm.activecommunities.com/montgomerycounty/Activity_Search/5160 \n
