Wildlife Track & Sign Fieldtrip & Workshop with Northwest Natura

Please join naturalists Jazmen Yoder and Robby Holmes (of Mountainside Nature School) for an immersive day of exploration focused on wildlife track and sign and ecological connections between animals, plants, and landscape systems. 

This course is designed for nature enthusiasts, aspiring naturalists, and anyone curious about our local ecosystems and seeking to improve their skills in identifying plants and wildlife track and sign. This will be a fun course with tons of educational content! 

Space is limited! Please register via event website. Learn the fundamentals of tracking including how to read animal signs, tracks, and behaviors. We'll cover essentials for successful tracking in various terrains. 

On this field trip, you are welcome to forage edible and medicinal plants and mushrooms if we find them. In midwinter, we can expect to find medicinal plants, and maybe a mushroom species or two. You’ll have to come check out the class and see! More information provided online.

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
