Northwood Meadows Discovery Day

 

 

Northwood Meadows Discovery Day - a celebration of the 20th Anniversary of Northwood Meadows State Park, and of the legacy left to present and future generations by M. Edward Burtt when he sold this  park to the State - will take place July 11th from 11 am to 4 pm at the State Park on Route 4 in Northwood.


This first-ever event celebrates our forests, farms, wetlands and wildlife as part of the 20th anniversary of Northwood Meadows State Park and Forest Peters Wildlife Management Area, core public lands in the NALMC neighborhood. Please join NALMC and friends for a fun-filled day of outdoor activities to enjoy one of Northwood’s best-kept secrets.


• Explore the forests, waters and meadows in our own backyard.


• Identify wildlife, aquatic bugs and special habitats, see how trees become boards, try your hand at fishing, investigate water quality at Meadow Lake, and more!


• Discover the special natural and cultural features of the Park with expert-led walking tours or take a guided hike up Saddleback Mountain.


• Help us to honor M. Edward Burtt - whose vision and hard work created the Park – as well as others who have contributed to the Park’s success.


Carl Wallman, Chairman of the NALMC Steering Committee says “This celebration is taking on a life of its own. There has been a huge outpouring of support from so many people who love the park and realize how important the park is for the well being and health of the Town of Northwood. People are looking for community events like this and we are bringing together many different groups from conservation advocates, to the historical society, to snowmobilers, fishermen, hikers, bikers and skiers. This should be a grand event and a lot of fun.”  Admission is free and the park is handicap accessible. Lunch will be available from the Northwood Crankpullers famous Barbeque Crew!

Friends Of Northwood Libraries To Host Program


The Friends of the Northwood Libraries will  host a free program on July 14, 2009, at 7 p.m.


The Wisdom of Small Farms and Local Food: Aldo Leopold’s Land Ethic and  Sustainable Agriculture.


This event will take place at the Chesley Memorial Library in Northwood, NH, and will feature John Carroll of the University of New Hampshire Department of Natural Resources.


John E. Carroll is professor of Environmental Conservation in the Department of  Natural Resources at the University of New Hampshire. In three decades at UNH, he has taught and done research on national and international environmental policy, diplomacy, ethics, and values as they pertain to sustainable agriculture and food systems.


“It is not meant for all of us to farm. But it is meant for all of us to eat. And we all have a right to nutritious food to keep us ‘healthy, wealthy and wise.’ To the greatest extent possible, this means local food.” — John E. Carroll


Using his book “The Wisdom of Small Farms and Local Food: Aldo Leopold’s Land Ethic and Sustainable Agriculture”, Professor Carroll explores with the audience the theoretical and practical underpinnings of the growing movement toward sustainable agriculture. Focusing on the land grant universities, particularly in New England and in Leopold’s own Midwest, their work in sustainable agriculture and their increasing attention to small-scale farming and local food, this book, provides a vision of where our public land grant universities might go, in research, in teaching, in outreach, inspired by the farmers who know best from their own experience, and providing vision and hope for many who want to play a role in increasing their own food security. The book is available through the author who can be reached at [email protected].

 

This program was made possible by the University of New Hampshire Speakers Bureau which connects faculty and staff speakers with non-profit organizations to share the research and knowledge of the university with the people and communities of New Hampshire. For more information on obtaining a speaker for your organization, contact the UNH Speakers Bureau at (603)862-4401 or on the web at www.unh.edu/speakersbureau.


For more information on this event, contact the Chesley Memorial Library at 603-942-5472 or [email protected].
