We Need Something Interesting To Do This Winter
It’s cold now and we are spending more time indoors. Walks are shorter and there is little greenery to lift our spirits.
Having given much thought to the problem of how to deal with wintertime isolation, I have arrived at one particular solution that, I believe, can make this time both interesting and productive with the added benefit of non-partisan interaction with others.
New York Botanical Garden and the EcoFlora Project
The New York Botanical Garden (NYBG), located in the Bronx, is the home of the EcoFlora Project which began in 2018. At that time there were two co-chairs . The first was Brian Boom then Vice President for Conservation Strategy . Although now he is Curator Emeritus, he is still deeply involved in EcoFlora. Daniel Atha is the second dynamic force and is officially Director of Conservation Outreach.
