5th Anniversary tour of the Adaptive Silviculture Plots (Members Only)

Five years ago, volunteers and members planted 1,200 trees at Crosby Farm Regional Park to study the effects of climate change on the floodplain forest. Mississippi Park Connection and its partners at the University of Minnesota, the City of Saint Paul, and the National Park Service made a 20-year commitment to studying these trees. After five years, what have we learned? Researchers will share their thoughts with Mississippi Park Connection members on this special tour.
