🌿 35 Posts for 35 Years: Woods Creek Fen
In celebration of its 35th anniversary, the Teton Regional Land Trust reflects on the enduring legacy of the Woods Creek Fen and its role as an outdoor classroom. Nestled just west of Driggs, Idaho, this 60-acre wetland, known as the Fred Mugler Outdoor Classroom, has been a cornerstone of TRLT`s conservation and education efforts .
Woods Creek Fen is a rare, calcium-rich wetland ecosystem, nourished by underground springs from the Teton Mountains. Its unique conditions support a diverse array of plant and animal life, making it one of the most floristically unique wetlands in Teton County. The area is equipped with educational kiosks, an accessible picnic table, and a wildlife viewing platform, offering visitors an immersive experience in nature .
Over the years, the Fen has hosted numerous educational events, including plant ecology walks and youth programs, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of wetland ecosystems among participants . The site`s development and ongoing stewardship have been made possible through the generosity of donors and volunteers, embodying TRLT`s mission to conserve the natural heritage of eastern Idaho for future generations .
As TRLT marks this milestone, it invites the community to explore Woods Creek Fen, participate in upcoming events, and support ongoing conservation initiatives.💚
