Join Mita to hear more about Wild Windsor, including: Dense blazing star; the 5-lined skink; sassafrass: they are all part of Windsor-Essex’s natural heritage. Residents need to care about these living things before we can expect them to take the steps needed to protect them. Mita wants to show some of the ways we could show local pride in our local distinctiveness.<br />
