Wildflowers and Wildlife: Sandplain Grasslands and Heathlands of Cape Cod & Nantucket

Join Dr. Sarah Bois, Director of Research and Conservation at the Linda Loring Nature Foundation, for a deep dive into the botanical and biological wonders of the coastal grassland ecosystems of Nantucket in this live educational webinar hosted by the Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound. These maritime sandplain grasslands are a globally imperiled habitat host to numerous rare and endangered flora and fauna. Sarah will guide us through why these grasslands and heathlands are so special, how the maritime climate, including wind and salt spray shape these habitats, and what we are doing to protect them into the future.

A Q&A session, moderated by Alliance president and CEO Audra Parker, will follow the presentation. Attendees will have an opportunity to ask Sarah questions during the Q&A.

The Linda Loring Nature Foundation preserves the biological diversity of its 275-acre property on Nantucket and connects people of all ages to nature through environmental education and research.

This webinar is part of the Alliance's ACONS (A Celebration of Nantucket Sound) webinar series, launched in 2020.
