SUMMARY:March Nature Night: The Era of Megafire
DESCRIPTION:The year 2017 was a record fire year with 9.1 million acres burning in the U.S. More than 680\,000 acres burned in Oregon alone\, in at least 33 different fires\, one of which was a megafire that burned 191\,000 acres. Join Dr. Paul Hessburg for an engaging\, multimedia presentation about wildfire\, its natural role in our Central Oregon forests\, and how that role has changed. Learn how we’ve interrupted the natural fire cycle of our forests and how\, with a rapidly warming climate\, we are experiencing more of these megafires. Dr. Hessburg will discuss the many options we have to reshape the wildfire problem\, and how we all can learn to better live with the coming wildfires. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required.

SUMMARY:Juniper Group Program Night
DESCRIPTION:Of Plants and Rocks and Peoples: A Geobotanical Tour of Central Oregon\nOregon’s diverse plant life is a result of its diverse geology. Please join us as Dr. Stu Garrett explores the wide variety of Central Oregon’s botanical treasures and how they relate to the spectacular landscape that surrounds us. We will make an armchair tour of the stupendous floods of northern Oregon\, consider the glacial sculpting of the ice ages\, and visit the dramatic lands of lava of eastern Oregon. You will learn about some of Oregon’s rarest plant species. These are the special places that draw us to Central Oregon and move us to protect them. \nAs an author\, co-founder of the Native Plant Society of Oregon\, Chairman of the Newberry Volcanoes Citizens Committee which enabled designation of Newberry National Volcanic Monument\, winner of the 2012 Bend Memorial Clinic’s Lifetime Achievement Award for contributions in quality healthcare and community leadership\, and recipient of numerous other awards\, Dr. Stu Garrett is truly a modern day Renaissance man.  His multi-faceted interests and knowledge converge in the rarified field of ethnogeobotany\, a natural history take on how geology affected plant life in the high desert and how ancient peoples used plants and rocks to make a life here.  We are honored to present his fascinating talk on a Geobotanical Tour of Central Oregon. \n6:30 social gathering/networking\, 6:50 action item and program.
