  • Toad Detour Training

    The Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education 8480 Hagys Mill Rd, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Learn how to protect our toads! Toad Detour protects the local toad population as they migrate to and from their breeding grounds each spring. When the toads emerge from brumation (the reptile version of hibernation) in the early spring, hundreds of them cross Port Royal, Hagy’s Mill and other nearby roads to mate in the Roxborough Reservoir or the Schuylkill Center’s ponds. Toad Detour season runs from March 1st to June 30th. On select nights, when the conditions are just right, Toad Detour volunteers erect barricades and help divert traffic during busy toad crossing evenings, saving hundreds of toads. Sign

  • Daylily Documentary Screening

    Free Library of Philadelphia 1901 Vine St, Science & Wellness Dept., Room 202, Philadelphia, PA, United States

    Daylily is a feature length documentary that explores the devotion surrounding a plant that blooms for only one day. Through the personal stories of gardeners from different backgrounds, the film reflects on the fleeting beauty of life and the quiet meaning found in moments that often pass unnoticed. By observing these flowers, which appear briefly and are found everywhere, the film invites viewers to recognize the same fragility, value, and presence within themselves. During the making of the film, I traveled to nine U.S. states and two countries, interviewing gardeners along the way, and ultimately finished the project with a
