SUMMARY:Virtual Lecture Series - Ecologic Restoration 101 led by Rory Klick
DESCRIPTION:In our southeast Wisconsin region\, we’re fortunate to live in a landscape mosaic of woodlands\, wetlands\, prairies\, lakes and streams. While preserving these natural areas is key to protecting the many plants and animals that live here\, just saving areas from development isn’t enough. As good stewards of the land\, we also must manage invasive species to give the competitive edge to native plants and animals\, and sometimes put back the indigenous species that are missing. This science is known as restoration ecology. The application of the science in the field is known as natural areas management. Join us for a conversation about what these restoration practices involve\, what such practices can accomplish\, and how you can help our efforts to keep our local natural areas healthy and productive.  \n  \nPlease register with rachel@kmlandtrust.org. Once you are registered\, we will send you a Zoom invitation with a link to join! \n

SUMMARY:Annual Seed Collection at Hackmatack
DESCRIPTION:Join Kettle Moraine Land Trust and Geneva Lake Conservancy for a seed-collection outing to Hackmatack National Wildlife Refuge in celebration of 2021 Land Trust Days! Saturday\, September 25th from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. we’ll be harvesting ripe seed of native prairie plants at the Turner Tract\, just northwest of Genoa City\, Wisconsin on County Trunk H. \nHackmatack National Wildlife Refuge was established in 2012\, spanning the state line in McHenry County\, Illinois and Walworth County\, Wisconsin. The Turner Tract was the first portion of the refuge to be open to the public. Former agricultural lands occupying portions of the site were seeded with native prairie plants by Ducks Unlimited prior to the transfer of the property to the US Fish & Wildlife Service for inclusion in the Refuge. \nVolunteers from throughout the Hackmatack region will be on hand to harvest native prairie seeds under the guidance of professional staff from Kettle Moraine Land Trust and Geneva Lake Conservancy. Volunteers are encouraged to wear long pants\, long sleeves\, closed-toe shoes or boots\, and a sun hat. Bring a refillable water bottle. Seeds collected there during the Land Trust Days event will be turned over to the US Fish & Wildlife Service for native species enrichment within the Hackmatack National Wildlife Refuge. \nPlease fill out this form to register\, https://forms.gle/85F9t9KKcc9K7AcJ9 \n

SUMMARY:Astronomy at Price Park Conservancy
DESCRIPTION:Like most people\, KMLT members probably think of the parks and preserved lands our organization maintains as being used and enjoyed only during daylight hours – but all of our properties offer the wonderful potential for evening use as well\, especially for viewing nighttime skies! \nYou are invited to become part of a small group of amateur astronomical observers on Wednesday\, September 8\, 2021\, at Price Park\, N6418 Hodunk Road\, Elkhorn\, from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm. The group will be led by KMLT board member and veteran astronomer Dan Koehler\, formerly of Yerkes Observatory\, who will give a beginner’s presentation under late summer evening skies designed to introduce basic observing techniques using the unaided eye\, binoculars\, and small telescopes. During the observing session we will be looking at some basic celestial objects like stars\, planets\, and some “deep space” objects\, learning some of the constellation and bright star names\, and understanding how the nighttime sky works and changes from season to season. \nIn case of rain or overcast skies\, we will attempt to host the event on the alternate nights of Tuesday\, September 14\, or Wednesday\, September 15\, also from 7:30 to 9:30 pm at Price Park. The group is limited to 20 participants aged 10 and up so early registration is strongly encouraged. Please dress appropriately for the weather. Sturdy shoes or hiking boots are required (your shoes must be closed-toed\, no sandals please!). A donation of $20 per person to the KMLT is suggested. \nRequests for registration and all questions should be directed to Dan via email at dkoehler@wi.rr.com. When registering\, please include the name(s) of the participants and a good contact phone number.

SUMMARY:Virtual Tea Party
DESCRIPTION:Dear Friend of KMLT\, \nIn these troubled times we could all benefit from a little comfort and care. \nI say! How about a nice cuppa tea? Tea and toast… or a scone or crumpet. Yes\, that does sound comforting. And music—yes\, some authentic\, down-home Midwestern folk music\, rooted in Wisconsin’s own glacial soils\, celebrating the natural world that sustains us all.  We are pleased to offer a heartfelt live set of original roots music by the masterful Kendra Swanson! \nPlease join us for the  Virtual Tea Party\, Sunday\, September 27 at 4:00 p.m. For a donation as little as $10 (through Eventbrite) you’ll receive a personalized link to the live tea party\, held via video conference and featuring Kendra’s enchanting songs. And you can enjoy it all from the comfort of your own home. \nOf course\, higher-level donations would be very much appreciated at this time. We are raising money to cover our expenses during the pandemic when gathering in person is ill-advised and nonprofit revenues are down all around. \nOur video-conference guest capacity is limited\, so you are encouraged to register before September 21. \nKendra Swanson is a songwriter and performer of lively\, folksome music: frailing banjo\, rigorous guitar\, soulful strings\, and hearty vocals to boot. Her music distinctly embodies a truly Americana sound from (and about) the heartland\, with intimate reflections on its flora\, fauna\, and people. She has independently produced and released three all-original albums\, “Kendra & Kin\, Live in Rockford” (2013)\, “Go Down to the Low Down” (2015)\, and “Without\, Within” (2017). A troubadour and professional naturalist\, she blends stories and ecology into one-of-a-kind performances of laughter and truth. \nFollow this link to purchase tickets on Eventbrite! See you at the Tea Party!
