Leopold Society
NewsWith Covid-19 restrictions limiting the face-to-face interactions and gatherings, Three Rivers Land Trust staff is developing virtual projects that students can do whether they are learning from home or remaining socially distanced in the classroom. In June staff applied for a grant to install a “critter cam” on a nesting platform located on Falls Reservoir in Badin, NC. This wifi-enabled camera would allow students to access live-streamed footage, making wildlife and weather observation accessible to everyone.
TRLT is also working with local high schools to develop Pollinator Garden Kits so that classes can easily develop their own pollinator gardens full of native wildflowers. If your school would like to be a part of the pollinator garden program, please email steely@threeriverslandtrust.org.
