What would a climate resilience workforce do in Pembroke? Join Greenhorns on June 12 from 1:30 to 3:30 pm for a facilitated conversation and community brainstorming with landscape architects and restoration specialists as we think together about how the newly funded Climate Conservation Corps might be an asset in our area. What would we do first? Who are the stakeholders? What kinds of shared land-use goals might bring more people into the work of preparing our region for the climate change that is headed our way. This session will inform a 2 week ‘restoration camp’ later in the summer.
This is a free event. RSVP at office@greenhorns.org for more info!
