We had our first in-person meeting since November 2019 this past Monday evening at the Seniors’ Club on Murray Street. Vaccinations were required and everyone in attendance masked and used the sanitizer provided. There were three happy winners of the “Gifting For Gardeners” baskets/packages and our presentation topic of “Ideas For Growing Vegetables” by Liz and Nick Case was informative and certainly timely. Many cool weather vegetables such as peas, radishes, spinach, cabbage, lettuce and many others can be planted now that the soil can be worked.

Amphibian and Reptile Road Ecology: Threats and Conservation Solutions

Nature is abundant in the Kawarthas, but so is the demise of many critters on our roads. Especially in the spring, from early April, amphibians like frogs and salamanders are run over as they attempt to cross roads to get to wetlands where they lay eggs; turtles that lay eggs on the sunny edge of roads, and snakes that warm themselves directly on asphalt are also prime targets. Local residents and visitors alike will find this upcoming speaker's information very valuable. The Kawartha Field Naturalists invite all to a webinar presentation on March 7, 2022 at 7: 30 pm. To join, email contactus@kawarthafieldnaturalists.org for the link.
