Chief Barbara Bluejay, keeper of culture and vice president for the Lenape Nation of Pennsylvania, will briefly discuss the past and present of the Lenape people. Chief Bluejay will explain how Lenape Nation of Pennsylvania is revitalizing Lenape culture and continuing their role as caretakers of their homelands.

Chief Bluejay, aka Barbara Michalski, was given the name by her grandfather, Bill Thompson, late Chief Whippoorwill of the Unalachtigo (people near the ocean) Tribe of the Turkey Clan. A member of Lenape Nation of Pennsylvania, she has immersed herself in their activities, such as serving on the tribal council and as tribal secretary and participating in educating the public by attending events or festivals in the Lenapehoking (Homeland of the Lenape). Most importantly, Chief Bluejay teaches children the history of the Lenape Nation through crafts, storytelling and artifacts. She has also been involved in environmental causes, particularly clean water protection. Recently, she has seen a rising interest in medicinal plants and has been working to learn more about them.

Birds have been colliding with buildings and other human structures since the 19th century and much of the research that’s been conducted historically to help us understand the phenomenon was conducted in Pennsylvania. This includes pioneering research conducted by the Delaware Valley Ornithological Club during the 1890s. This talk will review what we have learned about the problem over the last 130 years and what’s been done recently in Philadelphia to address it.

Having a passion and sharing it with others can be one of the most rewarding experiences. As gardeners, nature lovers, and environmental stewards, we relish those moments when we see that twinkle of wonder across a student’s eyes. In this age of technology, it seems like these moments of natural wonder are getting harder to find, but it is more important than ever to connect, even in a small way, with the environment. Join us for a look at how environmental interpretation has changed over the years, what inspired our journey, and methods and techniques you can use to share your love of nature and native plants with others.

Shannon and Anthony Trimboli have loved nature and the outdoors since childhood. Despite growing up hundreds of miles apart, they had similar childhoods, exploring the “wilder areas” of their yards and neighborhoods, chasing critters, and playing in the dirt. Like anyone passionate about something, they loved to share their love of nature with anyone who would listen. This passion followed them into college, where they obtained degrees in wildlife biology and then into their careers with both holding multiple conservation and environmental education positions. Eventually, both went back to college, while working part-time to obtain their Masters’ degrees, Shannon in ecology and Anthony in agriculture. Despite all the starts and stops of life, their passion for education never wavered. Today, they operate Backyard Ecology™ to help you avoid some of the mistakes they’ve made so you can achieve your own habitat dreams even faster and easier, guided by the principles of Curiosity, Balance, Science Informed, and Stewardship.

Purchased in 2014, David Hughes’ woodland area, once overbrowsed by deer and overrun by invasive plants, is now a thriving forest-floor community of native plants. The monoculture of lawns has been replaced with warm-season grass meadows, native wildflowers and forest communities. Vernal pools and rain gardens have been created to add a thriving wetland community. Join the Preserve for a private tour of this inspirational property and listen to Hughes give inspired information on healing our degraded landscape reflecting on rich communities of native plants and the creatures that call it home.
