Join us this December for the kickoff of the Kingston Land Trust&rsquo;s Winter Film Series with a special Kingston premiere of The Nature of Nature: Biodiversity of the Hudson Valley, a short documentary produced by Laura Heady from the Hudson River Estuary Program and directed by Laura deNey from Flicker Filmworks. This 30-minute film is an ode to the remarkable variety of life in the Hudson River estuary watershed&mdash;celebrating the living fabric of the region&rsquo;s unique landscape. From high-elevation forests to the globally rare freshwater tidal marshes along the Hudson, the film captures the beautiful, the complex, the familiar, and the unknown, guided by the plants, animals, and people that call the Hudson Valley home. Following the screening, stay for a panel discussion featuring local voices in ecology, conservation, and community land stewardship. The panel discussion is moderated by Michael Drillinger, KLT Board Chair, and will include Producer Laura Heady, Kathryn Kassner of UU Catskills Climate Action Team, Roselyn Vargas from the Kingston Y Farm Project&rsquo;s youth team and Julie Noble, Environmental Education and Sustainability Coordinator. The evening will continue with a community dialogue, where participants are invited to join small breakout groups to reflect, share, and explore how we relate to and care for the ecosystems that sustain us. Come be part of an evening of film, conversation, and connection&mdash;grounded in place and rooted in the biodiversity that surrounds us. In partnership with New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, Hudson River Estuary Program in partnership with Cornell University, UU Catskills Climate Action Team, Kingston YMCA Farm Project &amp; Peace Education Centre of the Hudson Valley.
