Chat with local scientist Reese de la Cerda about trees, climate, and urban planning, then join us for a Bio Blitz around the Nursery!
Reese will be visiting Our City Forest to chat about their climate research in San Jose. Reese's research showed different temperatures in different neighborhoods because of the amount of vegetation and trees. After the discussion, join Reese and AmeriCorps members for a Bio Blitz using the Seek app. Bring your questions, curiosity, and a charged smartphone with Seek already downloaded! Bonus points if you make an iNaturalist account and link it to Seek ahead of time!
