I write to you today to announce our Chapter’s designation of Chilton Woods State Forest (CWSF) as our Tree-mendous Twenty activity center over the next year. As you may recall, the Virginia Master Naturalist office created the Tree-mendous Twenty challenge to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the Master Naturalist Program in Virginia. Michelle Prysby had previously announced this and challenged each Chapter designate a project to commemorate the anniversary.
On March 12th, Judy Thomas gave our first pop-up presentation on galls. The presentation was recorded, and if you could not attend, you can access the recording through the link below for the next 90 days. I have also included her slide presentation so you can access the resources and links she shared. I encourage you to explore the world of galls more deeply with Judy's fantastic work. This pop-up counts as continuing education, and you are encouraged to log your time into Better Impact.
The Virginia Master Naturalist program is open to all, regardless of age, color, disability, gender, gender identity, gender expression, national origin, political affiliation, race, religion, sexual orientation, genetic information, veteran status, or any other basis protected by law.
