A two-day immersion in beaver ecology and river science, with a focus on the relationship between beavers, watershed health, and flood resilience. A combination of field trips, discussions, and classroom instruction, this retreat is for those who want to understand the complex role that beavers play in creating ecosystems, managing water, and sometimes causing headaches for humans along the way. Two full days of learning and exploring why beavers are important partners in towns dealing with floods. Instructed by Patti Smith of Bonnyvale Environmental Education Center, Skip Lisle of Beaver Deceivers International, and NorthWoods Educator Courtney Guinane.
