Bioregional Mapping Workshop

Place Based & Watershed Stewards

Just where is “here”? Bioregions are the way the world divides up naturally — defined by climate, by watershed, by mountains, by travel routes. But it’s not the way we’re used to looking at the world, and identifying the place we live.

In this workshop, students and community members will learn about Bioregionalism, Bioregional Mapping, and get an opportunity to work together to create a bioregional map.
