Join us on Thursday, January 6th at 6:00 p.m. via Zoom for the next installment of our Conservation Talk Series! This event is free and open to the public. Registration is required.
In this presentation, we will discuss the importance of biological corridors, the local wildlife that utilize them, and the efforts PCD is making towards creating these networks of habitat in our community.
