It was a rainy but fun day at the Lower Hudson PRISM
July meeting! We got to bioblitz and learn new gear and techniques and learn about ticks! And I got to see Ashlee and Corey who just graduated and hear all about their big kid jobs! (Thanks Corey for the pic!)

We were lucky enough to get funding from the ENV department to send three students to the ReLeaf Conference last week, which is all about urban forestry and had a lot of sessions related to the Community Reforestation grant program. They learned so much that we will put into action in our big Commons project!!!
