We conduct a variety of educational programs for the public. We also develop and disseminate several communication vehicles for interaction with the public, including social media, website, e-newsletters, and partner publications. Programs conducted during the year included bird walks, plant walks, wildlife tracking, native plant sale, firefly program, snowshoe walks, and many more. Our youth education programs increased during the year to include a story hour for young children, pre-teen nature book club, and several field experiences for local schools. We also offered several teacher trainings with the Scarborough Public Schools. The Land Trust also organized and ran our first photo contest, titled Marsh Madness, that produced 150 entries from the Marsh and preserves.
