Hidden Old Growth Forests of Massachusetts

The Marion Natural History Museum will be hosting David Orwig, Senior Ecologist and Forest Ecologist with Harvard Forest on March 31 at 7:00 pm at the Museum. David will be sharing his research into the presence of old-growth forests in our state. The talk will include a broad discussion of old-growth forests in Massachusetts- What are they? Where are they? What can they tell us? Through pictures and data from many old-growth forests in the state, many aspects of why these rare forest gems are so special will be described along with the many threats they face. Suggested donation to the museum – $10.00/person. To register, please go to the museum’s website: www.marionmuseum.org and search under community programs.
