Friends of the Forest Preserves

This event has passed, but you can see a recording of this webinar on our  YouTube channel.
The resilience of the Calumet region is incredible. After having been heavily impacted by industrialization, the southeastern part of Cook County boasts remarkable ecological diversity, including wetland habitats that are important for people and for wildlife. Join Gloria Orozco, Calumet Field Organizer, to explore the many ways that people find wellness and wonder in the forest preserves along the Little Calumet River. Using tools such as interactive maps, you’ll be equipped with the resources to go out and explore the natural and cultural landmarks found in the forest preserves of this beautiful and unique region.

You must register to attend. If you cannot make the live webinar, a recorded version will be available the next day on our YouTube Channel.

This webinar is part of a series, The Hidden Life of the Forest Preserves in Cook County, Illinois.
