SUMMARY:Learning Series - Climate Change: Seeing the Forest through the Trees
DESCRIPTION:Climate change is full of paradoxes. The need for action is urgent\, and yet\, true success is a long game. \nHeather Goldstone\, Chief Communication Officer of the Woodwell Climate Research Center\, kicks off our 2025 Learning Series with a big-picture look at how we talk and think about climate change. This free event will take place on Tuesday\, March 4\, at 7 pm\, in the Salem Family Auditorium at the Barrington Public Library. \nREGISTER FOR THE EVENT \nThe accumulation of greenhouse gases is supercharging both droughts and downpours\, fires and floods. It is a global phenomenon with intensely local impacts. This talk will address common questions and misconceptions about climate change and present a realistic\, empowering framing of our climate challenge—the scope of the problem and the kinds of solutions we need. \nAbout Heather Goldstone \nHeather Goldstone leads Woodwell Climate Research Center’s communications activities\, bringing the rich stories of Woodwell Climate scientists to diverse public audiences. She draws on her extensive experience as both a scientist and a journalist\, and her passion for melding data and narrative in climate change stories that build awareness and inspire action. \nShe came to Woodwell Climate from WGBH\, where she founded and hosted a weekly science-focused radio show\, Living Lab Radio. Previously\, she wrote the Climatide blog about coastal communities facing climate change. Her reporting on science and the environment has appeared in outlets ranging from Cape Cod Times and Commercial Fishery News to NPR’s Morning Edition\, The Takeaway\, and PBS NewsHour. In 2014\, she was recognized for the breadth of her work with WGBH’s Margret and Hans Rey/Curious George Producer award. \nAs a child\, Heather fell in love with the ocean and went on to pursue a career in marine research before turning her energies to science communication. She serves on the Woods Hole Sea Grant Marine Outreach Guidance Group and Cape Cod Climate Change Collaborative Advisory Committee\, and she frequently teaches or mentors students in communication skills. \nThanks to our 2025 Land Trust Learning Series Sponsors!\n \n\nMeridian Custom Homes ~ Providence\nCharles E.

SUMMARY:Guided Walk: Veterans Memorial Park
DESCRIPTION:Discover Barrington’s town-owned Veterans Memorial Park on a free guided walk by Land Trust Executive Director Cindy Elder on Sunday\, March 16\, at 1 pm. All ages are welcome. \nREGISTER FOR THE WALK \nWe’ll meet in the parking area on West Street in Barrington (see map below – between the YMCA and the East Bay Bike Path). \nEstablished in 1946 as a public recreation and conservation area by the Town of Barrington\, the park was named to honor veterans. The park land stretches over 230 acres\, including the 84-acre pond named Brickyard because this was the site of a local brick-making industry started in 1720 by Matthew Watson and continued until 1943. \nThe historic Watson cemetery where Matthew Watson is buried is located within the southeastern boundary of the park. The excavated clay beds eventually filled with water from underground springs forming the beautiful pond. Connected to\nNarragansett Bay by a canal\, the area is an important herring spawning ground.

SUMMARY:Guided Walk: PIC-WIL Nature Preserve
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a walk to PIC-WIL Nature Preserve\, a 24-acre preserve of forest\, field\, salt marsh and coastal dunes on the east shore of the Providence River in Barrington. \nThe terrain is gentle but may be wet in places. Dress for the weather and wear sturdy footwear. You may wish to bring a walking stick or poles to assist you when crossing wet areas. \nThe walk will last about an hour. All ages are welcome. Advance registration is required. \nREGISTER FOR THE WALK \nOnce home to a bottling facility owned by Deep Water Rock Company\, the property was donated to the Nature Conservancy by Catherine Picerelli in December of 1986 and deeded to the Barrington Land Conservation Trust in 1987\, to be preserved in perpetuity as a nature preserve. \nThe donation was made in memory of the families of Peter J. Picerelli and Clifford M. Wilson: thus the name “PIC-WIL.” Although the property is generally closed to the public due to its status as a nature preserve\, the Land Trust opens PIC-WIL periodically for guided walks. \nThe forest includes a wide variety of deciduous trees. The property is home to deer\, coyote\, fox\, weasels\, squirrels\, chipmunks and rabbits. \nPurple Martins nest here in late spring and summer. Common birds of the marsh and tidal creeks include Mallards\, American Black Ducks\, Snowy and Great Egrets\, Green-backed Herons\, Great Blue Herons\, and Osprey. Sharp-tailed Sparrows\, Belted Kingfishers and various shorebirds are other likely visitors of the wetland. \n \nNesting birds of the forest and its shrub border include Song Sparrow\, Carolina Wren\, Blue Jay\, Flicker\, Cardinal\, Goldfinch\, Robin\, Red-eyed Vireo\, Mockingbird\, Catbird\, Brown Thrasher and others. \nThree plants at PIC-WIL have “special interest” status in the state of Rhode Island: Creeping Spikerush (Eleocharis rostellata)\, Maritime Seablite (Suaeda maritima) and Robust Bulrush (Scirpus robustus).

SUMMARY:Learning Series: Between Moon Tides - Saving the Saltmarsh Sparrow
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT IS FULLY SUBSCRIBED. TO BE PLACED ON THE WAITING LIST\, PLEASE EMAIL CINDYELDER@BLCT.ORG. \nIn a ribbon of saltmarsh in coastal New England\, an intergenerational group of citizen scientists is trying to save the Saltmarsh Sparrow from extinction\, one nest at a time. Join us for a community screening of the new documentary by Jason Jaacks\, Between Moon Tides\, followed by a discussion featuring the co-directors of the Saltmarsh Sparrow Research Initiative\, Steve Reinert\, Jim O’Neill and Deirdre Robinson\, along with Research Assistant Joel Eckerson. \nThe Saltmarsh Sparrow has often been referred to as the “canary in the coal mine” for rising sea levels due to global warming. It has successfully built nests only an inch above the ground for thousands of years. \nDependent upon healthy salt marshes on the East Coast of the US\, the Saltmarsh Sparrow’s population has diminished by 75% since the 1990s. It lives nowhere else in the world and could become extinct by mid-century due to flooding\, depredation and habitat loss. \n \nBetween Moon Tides: The Documentary \nBetween Moon Tides follows an intergenerational group of citizen scientists in coastal New England as they attempt to save the Saltmarsh Sparrow from extinction — one nest at a time. Against the backdrop of rising sea levels\, three retirees and a young intern forge deep bonds while scouring the saltmarsh\, banding birds and witnessing firsthand the devastating effects of climate change. \nThrough stunning visuals and intimate storytelling\, the film reveals how a disappearing bird serves as both a warning and a call to action. Yet\, at its heart\, Between Moon Tides is a love story—about nature\, mentorship and the hope that comes from refusing to give up\, even in the face of impossible odds. \nAbout Jason Jaacks \nJason Jaacks is a filmmaker and photographer whose work explores the natural world and our place in it through the lens of science\, natural history\, and exploration. As a visual journalist\, he has produced television for National Geographic\, an award-winning web series for PBS Digital Studios\, and video shorts for The New York Times. His films have been screened at numerous film festivals\, including Mountainfilm\, Big Sky Documentary Film Festival\, and Wild & Scenic Film Festival. Jason is a National Geographic Explorer and holds a Master of Journalism from the University of California\, Berkeley. \nThanks to our 2025 Land Trust Learning Series Sponsors!\n \n\nMeridian Custom Homes ~ Providence\nCharles E.

SUMMARY:Guided Walk: Doug Rayner Wildlife Refuge
DESCRIPTION:Pete McCalmont \nVisit the Doug Rayner Wildlife Refuge on Thursday\, May 29\, at 9 am and enjoy a guided walk at the height of springtime. The walk is limited in size to ensure the best possible experience for participants. \nREGISTER FOR THE WALK \nThe walk will be led by Peter McCalmont\, Chairman of the Doug Rayner Wildlife Refuge Management Committee\, and Charlie Brown\, retired wildlife biologist with the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management\, Co-Chair of the Management Committee and Co-Manager of the Refuge.  \nThe Refuge is located on Nockum Hill on a peninsula extending into the Barrington River and Hundred Acre Cove estuary. Owned by the Town of Barrington\, the Refuge’s public hiking trails traverse 82 acres of field\, forest and shoreline. \nHistory of Nockum Hill \nNockum Hill has figured prominently in Barrington’s history. Once home to the Pokanoket people\, it is the site of the first Baptist meetinghouse in the New World. Legend has it that the first shots of King Philip’s War were fired nearby. \nThe town acquired the land in the 1960s and designated it as a wildlife refuge in 1994. The Barrington Land Conservation Trust was granted a conservation easement on the property in 2005 to ensure the property remains protected in perpetuity. This sensitive land is managed by the Doug Rayner Management Committee in collaboration with the Land Trust. \nIn 2000\, the Refuge was named after ardent naturalist Doug Rayner\, a member of the Barrington Conservation Commission and a board member of the Barrington Land Conservation Trust. Doug was instrumental in protecting the marshes and upland buffers of the Palmer and Barrington Rivers\, Nockum Hill and Hundred Acre Cove\, and was active in protecting endangered species and their habitats. \nLong recognized as a property of great natural resource value because of its coastal wetland and habitat\, it includes extensive salt marsh\, shrub-dominated fields\, deciduous forest and farmland. It provides habitat for a wide variety of animals which make their home in the diverse ecosystem of the Refuge and several special interest bird species such as clapper rail\, seaside sparrow and marsh wren. \nThe Barrington Land Conservation Trust has preserved approximately 300 acres of open space in perpetuity for the benefit of the public.

SUMMARY:Learning Series: Next Generation Leaders & Land Trust Annual Meeting
DESCRIPTION:A new generation of leaders is forming in some of the most remote corners of Barrington. Armed with clippers\, weed wrenches\, shovels\, bow saws\, trash grabbers and other human-powered tools\, they collaborate and work toward shared goals while caring for our natural open spaces. \nJoin us on Wed.\, June 4\, at 6 pm for a presentation by graduating high school seniors on the Student Stewardship Team of the Barrington Land Conservation Trust. This event\, held in partnership with the Barrington Public Library\, will take place in the Salem Family Auditorium. \nREGISTER FOR THE EVENT \nThe Land Trust will hold a brief Annual Meeting before the presentation. A reception in the Collis Family Gallery will follow the event. All are welcome. \nMore than 30 high school students between the age of 14 and 18 have participated on the Student Stewardship Team since its founding in May 2023. Working in small teams\, they help the Land Trust in variety of ways\, from physical tasks like trail maintenance and planting\, to specialized skills like website design\, photography\, film\, research and event management. \nHear first-hand from students who have been volunteering far from the view of most townspeople. Now in its third year of operation\, the Student Stewardship Team is cultivating leadership skills and civic responsibility at the grassroots level — literally. \n“Whether we were clearing trails\, removing invasive species\, or cleaning up the beach\, there was something incredibly satisfying about getting our hands dirty together\,” says senior Henry Schultz. \n“There was no competition – no pressure – and it was just us\, outside\, doing work that made a real difference. In a world where so much of our time is spent behind screens\, this kind of connection to nature and to each other feels so refreshing.” \nIn the last 12 months\, the Student Stewardship Team has contributed nearly 500 hours of volunteer time. They have worked on many properties owned by the Land Trust as well as town-owned properties including Osamequin Nature Preserve\, St. Andrews Farm\, Doug Rayner Wildlife Refuge and Veteran’s Memorial Park. \nEach of the student speakers is a recipient of the Russo Scholarship\, awarded to graduating seniors on the Student Stewardship Team who have completed more than 20 hours of service by the time they apply. The scholarships are made possible by Barrington resident and retired inventor Ronald Russo. \nThe students’ work enhances the ongoing stewardship activities of the Tuesday Trails Team\, an adult team which meets monthly to work on conservation properties\, and the adult property stewards who monitor the Land Trust’s properties monthly. \n“I started volunteering for the Student Stewardship Team at the end of my sophomore year of high school\, when the program was in its infancy\,” recalls senior Indie Lamb. \n“What I found was an amazing community which I will treasure. I have always been a proponent of preserving wild spaces. However\, it was not until I started volunteering on the Student Stewardship Team that I truly understood why it was important. These spaces provided habitat for native plant species\, wildlife and for human enjoyment. My time volunteering with the team has brought me closer to local lands and has fostered my appreciation for the natural spaces we have in Barrington.” \n  \n  \n  \n  \nThanks to our 2025 Land Trust Learning Series Sponsors!\n \n\nMeridian Custom Homes ~ Providence\nCharles E.
