SUMMARY:🧤 Volunteer: Plant Eastern Shore Natives Ed & Outreach Info Session
DESCRIPTION:In an effort to reinvigorate the Plant Eastern Shore Natives initiative\, we have scheduled three meetings in July for interested members of the public to attend. Registration is encouraged. \nThese meetings will be almost identical and provide a brief overview of the history and purpose of the initiative\, both locally and statewide. \nMembers of the ES Master Naturalists and the Master Gardeners worked to overhaul the popular original guide that supports this initiative. Virginia Witmer of the Virginia Coastal Zone Management Program has completed all of the content alignment and graphic design to have an order of this new edition printed within the month – very exciting! \nThe hope is that attendees who are keen to become involved will commit to form a new\, active work group that focuses on public and vendor education and outreach using the initiative’s communication tools – hosting booths/tables at public events\, doing educational talks\, working with vendors\, and more – to improve knowledge  of the benefits of the use of Eastern Shore Native plants. \n\nBetter Impact Category 15: Plant Eastern Shore Natives presentations

SUMMARY:💡CE: Learn About Mussels! (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:The event is free but you must register. \nWild Virginia will host a webinar on Wednesday July 24th at 6:30pm by Alissa Ganser\, an expert on freshwater mussels. You’ll learn about the fascinating life cycles of these valuable species\, who can live 100 years or more and use mimicry to fool fish into helping these largely sedentary animals spread their offspring throughout streams. \nThough little known to most people mussels have an outsized value to aquatic environments and the southeastern US has one of the richest and most diverse assemblages of these species in the world. However\, more than 70% of North American species are at risk or already extinct. \nPlease attend and learn how to help protect them in Virginia streams.Alissa Ganser is a PhD candidate in Fisheries and Wildlife Sciences at Virginia Tech and has studied freshwater mussels in the Mississippi River in Wisconsin\, and streams in Kentucky\, Tennessee\, and Virginia. \nPhoto by Wild Virginia. \n\nBetter Impact Category 2: Continuing Education
