VIRTUAL WILDLIFE FESTIVAL: Due to social distancing requirements, instead of a one-day Wildlife Festival on Sunday, May, 31st, Wilton Wildlife Preserve & Park will be hosting a Wildlife Week. Each day through June 6th, the Wilton Preserve will premiere a short video or host a live event that is based on the in-person events that would have taken place at the annual festival at Camp Saratoga. These will premiere daily at 10:00 am on the Wilton Preserve’s Facebook page and the videos will be posted to its YouTube channel. The Festival Week will kick-off with a Facebook Live Turtle Discovery Program at 10 a.m. on May 31, followed by a Karner Blue Butterfly Walk via Video on Monday, June 1; a Video Nature Craft at Home on Tuesday, June 2; “Who Will Roar if I Go?” Online Storybook Reading on Wednesday, June 3; a Video Exploration and History of the Historic Cornell Hill Fire Tower on Thursday, June 4; Aquatic Freshwater Wildlife Exploration Video from Delegan Pond on Friday, June 5; and a National Trails Day Trail Highlight Video on Saturday, June 6. For more information please call the Preserve & Park office at 518-450-0321 or visit the website at www. wiltonpreserve.org. PLANT SALE: Pitney Meadows Community Farm plant sale weekends begin May 16 and 17, from 12 to 4 p.m., and continue Saturday and Sunday through the end of the month, with incredible starter plants from the Pitney Meadows Community Farm greenhouses. Naturally we’re practicing social distancing (please wear your protective masks) and have safety procedures in place. See you at 223 West Ave. in Saratoga Springs this weekend. You’ll get a garden full of hardy vegetables and your plant purchases will help us grow for and supply our regional food pantries.
