Vernal Pool Plunge – Day 2

April 23, 2022

A group pf 17 volunteers stand around and inside a small wooded wetland called a Vernal Pool at Hilltown Land Trust's Vernal Pool Plunge event. All volunteers are dressed in rubber knee high rain boots, pants, and raincoats. Many other volunteers are holding long white extendable nets, clipboards and buckets. All these tools are used for the Vernal Pool Plunge training event. The volunteers are standing in front of a large trunk of a white pine tree with long branches and many other species of trees can be seen in the background of the photo including hemlock and maples.

Day 2 of the Vernal Pool Plunge will build on what participants learned Day 1 out in the field. Participants must attend the first session to participate in this one. Please visit the page for Day 1 to read more and register.
