Dunes' Digest: Great Lakes Coastal Wetlands
A Lunch & Learn event at Woodland Dunes: an hour of nature knowledge with a different topic and presenter each month. Bring your lunch; coffee, tea, water and a sweet treat are provided.
Called the “rainforests of the Northern Hemisphere,” coastal wetlands are one of the most productive habitats in northern latitudes. They warm up before the lake and serve as important spawning and nursery habitat for nearly three-quarters of Great Lakes fish species. Wetlands, like the Great Lakes themselves, have changed over time, especially from human impacts, but remain important habitats. Join UW Sea Grant Fisheries Specialist Titus Seilheimer for a virtual tour of coastal wetlands and the current status of other Great Lakes habitats.
Class fee: sliding scale of $1-$10 per person (collected at check-in; cash preferred). Registration required by Monday, Feb. 17; email jessicaj@woodlanddunes.org or call 920.793.4007.
