SUMMARY:PRISM Fall Meeting with Guest Speaker Joan Maloof
DESCRIPTION:Join us Wednesday\, October 7\, 11:30 am-1 pm\, to hear from Dr. Joan Maloof\, one of America’s leading voices for the protection of old-growth forests. An ecologist\, author\, educator\, and conservation leader\, she is the founder of the Old-Growth Forest Network\, the only national organization dedicated to ensuring that every U.S. county capable of supporting forests has at least one permanently protected\, publicly accessible forest that will never be logged. \nThrough this ambitious vision\, she has inspired communities across the country to preserve forests where people of all ages can experience the beauty\, biodiversity\, and ecological richness of mature and ancient woodlands. This presentation explores the importance of old-growth forests and explains why protecting the few that remain—and allowing more forests to grow old—is essential for the health of both people and the planet. \nREGISTER HERE\nAbout Blue Ridge PRISM:\nBlue Ridge Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management (PRISM) is Virginia’s first Cooperative Weed Management Area. \nFounded in 2014 as a volunteer-driven project of the Shenandoah National Park Trust\, PRISM became a stand-alone nonprofit 501(c)(3) public charity in 2020.
