Co-hosted by Valley Conservation Council, Backyard Botetourt is a monthly meeting of folks interested in natural resources issues. We meet the 4th Monday of each month (Aug-Nov & Jan-May) at the Fincastle Library. Meetings are free and open to the public. Content is usually tailored to adults, but children are welcome. Meetings start at 7:00 p.m. and typically last about an hour.
Topics vary, but theses are a few of the topics we’ve had speakers address over the last few years…
Caves & Bats, Native Trees of Botetourt, Gardening with Children, Geology of Botetourt’s Mountains, Mushrooms & Mycology, Pubilc Lands, Gardening for Pollinators, Apples in Botetourt, Greenways & Trails, Dark Skies, the Appalachian Trail, Reptiles & Amphibians
