Starting in February, join the O’Brien County Conservation Board for Conversations with Conservation. This adult focused series will be held once a month at the Prairie Heritage Center. The series will focus on learning about an interesting topic with a guest speaker who is passionate and knowledgeable about their topic. We hope that this series will help fuel connections with others interested in learning and having great conversations about the world around us.
February’s guest to Conversations with Conservation is Quinn Black, the archaeologist at Sanford Museum and Planetarium in Cherokee, Iowa. His conversation topic is “The Bustling Wittrock Village” where he will discuss the well preserved fortified Mill Creek village site located in O’Brien County. He will lead a presentation and then open it up for questions and conversation. February’s Conversations with Conservation will be held on Thursday, February 3rd at the Prairie Heritage Center. The presentation will begin shortly after 5:30 p.m.
