12/19 - Volunteer Day at Winding Waters Natural Area

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: The Institute for Regional Conservation

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 3 people are interested

Join IRC for a volunteer day where we will kick off a new program called Reviving Urban Biodiversity at Winding Waters Natural Area, Palm Beach, Fl. This is an opportunity to learn about native urban biodiversity and the importance of preserving remnant patches of urbanized natural areas. We will have a brief discussion about invasives species and the threat the pose on native species, and discuss new emerging invasives in Palm Beach County. We will then spend the majority removing nonnative species from the natural area.

Longsleeve shirt, outdoor attire, hat and reuseable water bottle are recommended. We hope you'll join us on December 19th from 10:00am to 12:00pm.

About The Institute for Regional Conservation

Mission Statement

A private non-profit organization, The Institute for Regional Conservation (IRC) is dedicated to the protection, restoration, and long-term management of biodiversity on a regional basis, and to the prevention of regional extinctions of rare plants, animals and ecosystems.

Description

Based in Florida, USA, IRC works on conservation research and action throughout South Florida, the Caribbean and beyond. Our work is premised on an innovative idea of conservation that seeks to protect and restore viable populations of all plant and animal species within a region, rather than simply focusing on charismatic animals or plants with narrow global ranges.
