Maine Sea Grant will offer in-person volunteer training for the Signs of the Seasons program at Gilsland Farm Audubon Center, co-hosted by Maine Audubon. Participants will learn about the goals of the program, learn how to make scientific observations of phenology (the study of cyclic and seasonal changes of plants and animals), practice making phenology observations on the grounds of Gilsland Farm, and leave with the tools and knowledge needed to set up their own site to observe and record changes in phenology in their own yard or community. Questions about this opportunity may be directed to Beth Bisson, at beth.bisson@maine.edu or Keri Kaczor, at keri.kaczor@maine.edu
Training Location: Gilsland Farm Audubon Center, 20 Gilsland Farm Road
