Have you ever wanted to contribute to community science to support the plant and animal species of the Kawarthas? Kawartha Land Trust is hosting three bioblitzes on properties that are protected by or connected to KLT. Using your smartphone, explore Fern Hill and document the plant and wildlife species you see.
Fern Hill is a 200-acre farm in Bailieboro with beautiful historic buildings, active hayfields, pastures, ponds, a creek, woodlands, a pollinator garden, and majestic oak trees. The landowners are members of KLT’s Partners in Conservation program.
