Ecology of Beer Hike - Saturday, February 13 

Join local Ecologist Tony Baumert for indepth look at the ecosystem of his backyard, Frick Park. We'll wander 4 miles of the park as he tells us about forest succession, invasive species and deer herbivory and how they affect the plants and animals that live in the park. After the hike, we will join Tony "The Beer Man" Knipling from Vecenie Distributing Company for another ecology lesson, but this time on beer. We'll learn what is involved in the beer making process and taste beers from around the country that promote their sustainable practices. Minimum age 21.
