McFarland Park, Story County
Tuesday, February 5, 2019
Join Dr. Tom Rosburg, Drake University, to discuss mapping and evaluating conservation landscapes in Story County, Iowa. The role of sound science in implementing conservation has never been more essential than in today’s environment. Story County needs comprehensive and accurate information on its natural resource base, or in other words a well-designed natural resource inventory. That is the principal goal of the field research in this project.

to attend the free program. - Registration and payment for the optional
meal is required by 4:00 p.m. on Friday, February 1, 2019.
