Event in Room: Upstairs
Learn about lichens and what they tell us about the forest.
Lichens are everywhere, whether we notice them or not. They are ancient and strange, a marriage of two or more completely different organisms. Home to nearly 1,000 species, Nova Scotia is a lichen hotspot. Find out what makes our province such a rich place for lichens and listen to what they have to tell is about our environment. Learn too about the role species at risk lichens are playing in protecting old forests in Annapolis County.
The Enchanted Forest: Lichens, biodiversity and species at risk
