Monthly Program: "The Evolution of Ceres Park, a Gloucester County Gem"

Many people have walked the trails of Ceres Park in Mantua, but few know the curious history of this local gem. Erik Mollenhauer will share the storied past of a land where dinosaurs roamed. This land would become a hustling industrial site and eventually reborn as a refuge for native plants and wildlife. In addition to the evolution of the park, the presentation will also feature some of the park’s native plants and the threats they are facing.

This event is free and open to the public.

Presenter: Erik Mollenhauer
