I bet you won't believe me when I tell you that you share your home and yard with thousands, yes thousands, of other species. From coyotes to luna moths, you are surrounded by a constellation of wildlife in the ecological galaxy that is your town or city. Join me as I show you how you influence the species around you, and in turn, how they influence you in your yard, along your street, in your neighborhood, and citywide. In each place, I'll share easy ways to build on your budding relationship with urban nature. 

Join us at the Eisner Center on the campus of Denison University, the Granville Public Library, & Licking County Pollinator Pathway host Dr. Sara Gagne.  Reserve your spot at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/where-is-the-best-place-to-connect-with-nature-at-your-door-tickets-714083421737?aff=oddtdtcreator
