The Fire Paradox – Saturday August 3rd
Recent wildfires have been devastating in the Okanagan, but the reality is that our grasslands and dry forests were historically fire-maintained. Ecologist Don Gayton has studied the role of fire extensively and will present an interactive talk on this controversial subject.
All Nature Talks start at 11 am and are free with admission.
Admission: Family – $25 (Max 2 adults & children under 18); Adults – $10; Seniors (65+) – $9; Youth (ages 6-17) – $8; Children (5 and under) – Free
Admission to the Desert Centre includes either a guided or self-guided tour. Choose the option that works best for you.
