The Ridges Sanctuary

Leader: Jeff Lutsey, CCCDC & Katie Krouse, TRS 

Door County sits at the boreal edge—a place of dynamic change and ecological learning. On this field trip, participants will explore how local organizations, landowners, municipalities, and researchers are responding to emerging challenges and shaping solutions that support long-term land health and community well-being. Through guided walks at a boreal tree planting research site and a small-home, eco-focused Boreal Preserve, we’ll examine species shifts, land-use pressures, and community-driven approaches to stewardship and sustainable living. Suitable for ages 16 & up.  

CENTRAL. MEET: Baileys Harbor Town Hall, carpooling required to field trip location 

Limit: 16
