      The Spring into Summer series of events sponsored by Oneida County Land and Water Conservation Department hopefully inspired homeowners to create ​or protect habitat, turn off their outdoor lights, introduce native plants, plant for pollinators, or stabilize their shoreline.

      Fifteen firefly watchers joined members of the Land Conservation Team at the soccer fields on June 17 to learn about firefly biology and habitat.  There is still time to get outside at night and enjoy the fireflies. 

​      Thirty people met at Hanson's Garden Village to learn about Native Plants and how they can attract pollinators to your garden.  Check out the story at:

      Members of the Land Conservation Department gathered with a group of tour participants to highlight a few properties on the Site Restoration Tour.
