Much more than trees or a bit of "green space," the forest is a complex and dynamic community doing more than we may realize. Join us for a sleuthing walk to find out what the forest is up to. Eileen Fielding, ecologist and Audubon's Connecticut Team Leader for the Healthy Forest Initiative, will lead an easy ramble through Sharon Audubon Center's woods to spot some of the woodland players and processes at work. Dress for the weather and wear sturdy shoes that tolerate wet ground.

Audubon For All—Audubon welcomes everyone who finds delight in birds and nature. Just as biodiversity strengthens natural systems, the diversity of human experience strengthens our conservation efforts for the benefit of nature and all human beings. We support a diverse and inclusive environment, and welcome individuals of all races, physical and mental abilities, sexual orientations, gender identities, ethnicities, and perspectives. Together, we will bring new creativity, effectiveness, and leadership to conservation and nature experiences. Welcome to our family!
