SUMMARY:Visible and invisible mending: An intersection of art and ecology
DESCRIPTION:Ecological restoration\, the process of assisting the recovery of an ecosystem\, is a process of mending. In mending\, there is much promise –- for both lands and people. Nancy Aten’s work practicing ecological restoration\, especially involving wetlands\, interacts with her work as a monotype printmaker — especially around this idea of mending. Join this Wetland Coffee Break to learn more about Nancy’s work and how these domains interact for her. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Identifying Raptors in Fall Migration in Wisconsin
DESCRIPTION:The goal of this course is to learn to identify and monitor raptors during migration. We will especially focus on learning how to identify raptors in flight; that is how we are most likely to see them during their autumn migration. Many field guides are useful for identifying a perched raptor\, but the birds when seen in flight can look quite different from images in standard bird field guides\, and their appearance can be confusing at first. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Racial Equity and Environmentalism
DESCRIPTION:Join August M. Ball\, founder\, and CEO of Cream City Conservation as she outlines how compounded disparities impact communities of color in every corner of society. Be it socio-economic\, political\, educational\, health\, etc. communities of color remain disproportionately impacted by environmental hazards yet grossly under-represented in spaces that hold key decision-making power related to conservation and sustainability. This presentation will provide the history of the construction of race\, (a key component in driving these inequities)\, while also examining environmental policies that have had a layered impact on the environmental movement and contributed to the racial homogeneity we see today. The goal of this presentation is to help participants understand why these inequities exist and develop shared language for how to discuss these issues and interrogate the intricate relationship between race and institutional outcomes. \nInfo here.

SUMMARY:Methods of Pastured Pork and Poultry Production
DESCRIPTION:See two farms raising pastured pork and poultry in a couple of different ways! Pastured pork and poultry can be a viable method for produce growers to add the fifth principle of soil health\, Integrating Livestock\, into their soil health practices. These methods of production are often overlooked in soil health programming and education. Over the summer\, we hope to create educational materials or a podcast on this topic as it is something that farmers who don’t have a land base to run cattle\, but do have acreage enough for poultry or pork\, can benefit from. \nRegister: https://www.sfa-mn.org/soil-health-for-fruit-vegetable-growers/
