Join author and founder of the Old-Growth Forest Network, Joan Maloof, for this presentation on her work and her recently revised and expanded book "Nature's Temples: A Natural History of Old-Growth Forests." The Old-Growth Forest Network connects people with nature by creating a national network of protected, publicly accessible forests. Dr. Maloof wrote this book in response to the idea that “forests need to be managed to be healthy.” Dr. Maloof’s research shows unmanaged forests have the largest and oldest trees as well as more mushrooms, wildflowers, salamanders and moss species. Let’s get together to talk about ancient forests and what can be done to save them.
