A small group from the 180+ third graders we had visit the Nevada Division of Forestry nursery this week. These kids were so interested in learning about seeds, prorogation and pollinators ........ no doubt in my mind that they will become our protectors of our environment in just a few years. Thanks Outdoors Nevada, US Fish and Wildlife and Barrick for sponsoring this event!

Working with Christiana Manville with the Pardners for Fish and Wild life Program for the last 5+ years has been such a wonderful experience, she is well beyond the usual agency support person. Always there, with either land owners or kids in the local schools, she simply connects, I love working with her, it does make the difference! This past Saturday at the Earth Day event in Pahrump was just one of many she and I've done together.
