Nature's Secret Services
The value of nature to people has long been recognized, but in recent years, the concept of ecosystem services has been developed to describe these various benefits. An ecosystem service is any positive benefit that wildlife or ecosystems provide to people. The benefits can be direct or indirect—small or large. Think about pollinators and our food supply or trees and the air that keeps us alive. Come learn many other vital services nature provides on a daily basis. There’s something for all ages and interests at Riverside Nature Center and free admission to see the exhibit. Open Monday – Saturday 10am - 6pm.
