Wild Lands of the Denton County – AT

June 8 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Wild Lands of the Denton County

Saturday, June 8 | 2 – 3:00 p.m.

Glenmore Savage Community Room – Lewisville Public Library

Denton County is home to three of the five largest—ranging from 2600 to 3700 acres— nature parks and preserves in North Texas: Clear Creek Natural Heritage Center (Denton), Ray Roberts Lake State Park (Pilot Point), and Lewisville Lake Environmental Learning Area, called LLELA.  That’s bragging rights!  Amy Martin, author of Wild DFW: Explore the Amazing Nature Around Dallas-Fort Worth, will share excerpts and photos from those chapters in the book, woven with the dramatic story of recovering from a traumatically broken neck by walking dirt trails at these and other locations.

A journalist and writer for over 40 years, Amy Martin is also the author of Itchy Business: How to Treat the Poison Ivy and Poison Oak Rash, Prevent Exposure and Eradicate the Plant (Itchy.biz).  She is senior features writer for Green Source DFW (GreenSourceDFW.org).  A current project is Ned Fritz Legacy (NedFritz.com), a biographical website of Ned Fritz, Texas’ most famous environmentalist.  Find her writings at Moonlady.com.
