Nature Done Wright

I will  givea free talk about the Celery Farm Natural Area and nearby historic John Fell House in at the Bergen County Audubon Society on  Wednesday ( Jan. 18).

I'll discuss the history of the Celery Farm and the Fell House  – two subjects near and dear to my heart — including the unsung John Fell’s heroic role in the Revolutionary War,  the house that bears his name, and the swamp that he owned – once called Fell's Meadows and better known today as the 107-acre Celery Farm.

A slide show featuring never-seen before  archival Fell photos and nature shots of the Celery Farm will illustrate my talk.

As a so-called bonus, I'll read aloud my ground-breaking story about the Wild Turduckens that have been reported on High Mountain.

There may also be a surprise inspection of the Crowphy trophy to make sure the BCAS is taking good care of the valuable statuette until its safe return to Fyke next winter.
