Community science is the engagement of passionate members of the general public, often with little or no previous training, in the advancement of scientific knowledge and discovery. As environmental threats to our natural world mount, community science has become critical to collecting and analyzing data to help make conservation decisions. Come and learn about the history of community science, how the Native Plant Trust utilizes community science, and the impacts you can have as a community scientist. The talk takes place September 8 beginning at 10:30 and is $23 for NPT members, $27 for nonmembers. Register at www.nativeplanttrust.org.
