Visitors to CFAES’s Farm Science Review, set for Sept. 18-20, can hop a free shuttle to the Gwynne Conservation Area, pictured below, home to nearly 70 acres of ponds, woods, prairies and a stream.
Called the Gwynne for short, it’s a perfect setting for more than 50 free talks and demonstrations on conservation, including trees, fish, soils, grasslands, water and wildlife.
Topics will range from bees to bats, chainsaw safety to year-round grazing, harvesting timber to making maple syrup.
One demonstration will even feature “electrofishing,” a method used by scientists to sample the fish in a lake or stream.
