#MDSGBackyardEcology - Educating from home during a time of telework / by Lisa Tossey

As our program shifted to telework at the beginning of the pandemic, we struggled with how we could continue to connect our social media followers with their local watershed. We were all hunkered down in our homes, but our staff was spread across the state — from the Atlantic Ocean to the mountains of western Maryland. That allowed us to share a wide variety of images of seasonal changes in plants and wildlife from our own backyards to help others discover and learn about what they may be seeing in their own during a time of lockdown.
