SUMMARY:Coming up: 'What Is Wild and Why It Matters'
DESCRIPTION:What Is Wild and Why It Matters will be presented April 28 by Rick Darke\, known for shaping how we think about wildness in managed landscapes. This event is a fundraiser for  Wild Ones and Homegrown National Park; it’s free or pay what you can. \n\n\n\nCan’t make it? A recording will be available. \n\n\n\nRegister here. \n\n\n\nRick Darke is an award-winning landscape designer\, author\, photographer\, and educator. His work bridges ecology\, cultural geography and aesthetics\, showing that residential landscapes can be biologically rich and visually compelling at the same time. \n\n\n\nDarke has collaborated with leading ecological thinkers\, including Douglas Tallamy\, and co-authored influential books such as The Living Landscape\, The Wild Garden: Expanded Edition\, and Gardens of the High Line: Elevating the Nature of Modern Landscapes. His now-classic book\, The American Woodland Garden\, was among the first to employ firsthand studies of wild habitats to provide landscape design and management strategies grounded in living processes. \n\n\n\nThrough decades of design\, writing\, and teaching\, Darke has advanced the idea that wilderness need not be something separate from our daily lives\, but is instead essential to connecting us with the extraordinarily interwoven web of life we call nature.

SUMMARY:Coming up: volunteer tree planting with WNY Land Conservancy
DESCRIPTION:The Western New York Land Conservancy will hold a tree planting party at their newly protected Black Creek Preserve in Birdsall\, Allegany County. Volunteers will help plant 75 native trees along Black Creek to improve wildlife habitat\, stabilize streambanks\, and protect water quality. \n\n\n\nThis is a great opportunity to get outside\, work with your hands\, and make a lasting impact at one of our newest permanently protected preserves. In addition to planting trees\, volunteers will help dig holes\, install deer fencing and posts to protect the young trees\, and haul water and mulch to give them the best chance for success. \n\n\n\nAll experience levels are welcome. Please take sturdy boots and work gloves. \n\n\n\nRegistration is required. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBonus news: Another property is protected! In February\, the WNY Land Conservancy closed on a 45-acre property on Grand Island. The as-yet unnamed property on the east side of the island includes more than 400 feet of Niagara River shoreline\, along with wetlands and wet meadows that support species such as Jefferson and blue-spotted salamanders\, western chorus frogs\, and many bird species. \n\n\n\nFunding for the project came entirely from the Niagara River Greenway’s Ecological Standing Committee (GESC). The grant also provides funding for restoration\, while WNY PRISM has awarded additional assistance for an invasive species inventory. Over the next two years\, we will conduct habitat restoration to improve conditions for wildlife and the community. To support this work\, the preserve will not be publicly accessible at this time. \n\n\n\nThis is the second property the Land Conservancy has permanently protected in 2026 and brings the total acreage permanently protected for the year to 131 acres.
