This means balancing social\, economic\, and environmental priorities to ensure Clermont County remains a vibrant\, sustainable community and the preferred place to locate\, operate\, and grow a successful business. \nAndrew McAfee is the Vice President of the Clermont Chamber of Commerce. \nCincinnati Nature Center is located in Clermont County\, where rural and urban lifestyles meet. We inspire conservation through personal experiences\, education\, and care for the land. This involves training\, convening\, and consulting with citizens who want to make their communities better. We encourage residents to understand the perspectives\, values\, and constraints involved with complex issues in their communities. As we seek common ground and work together\, we can improve our local quality of life while supporting a thriving economy and healthy environment. \nConnie O’Connor is Director of Applied Learning for Cincinnati Nature Center and also serves on the Clermont Soil and Water Conservation District Board\, supporting best practices for agriculture and conservation.\nWhere to Meet: This program is online. \nCost: $50 for the entire series of 8 sessions (No refunds on individual sessions).

SUMMARY:Fall 2026 Orchard Installation In Lower Price Hill
DESCRIPTION:Join the Common Orchard Project in creating a new public orchard! \nOrchards can be less work to produce food over time compared to vegetable gardens\, but installation is quite labor intensive. To get these new public orchards off to a good start\, we are organizing these volunteer days to make the work lighter for all! Come learn how to plant trees\, fruit tree care\, and meet neighbors who care as much as you do. \nEvent Info: \nNovember 19\, Thursday\, 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM \nLower Price Hill \n635 Neave St\, Cincinnati\, OH 45204 Census Block \nWe will be planting ~10 trees and laying down black plastic to remove the grass. If you are looking for a snapshot into what this might look like\, check out this video we created with a funding partner back in 2022. \nAll tools and gloves provided\, just bring a water bottle and wear appropriate outdoor clothing to dig holes and plant trees. \nAdditional Information: \nIf you are able to join and sign up\, please do follow through! It changes our plans and makes these days difficult if people change their minds at the last minute. We will give a reminder and notice of any extreme weather related changes of plans 2 days before the event. \nWe will have locally grown fruit and other snacks.

SUMMARY:The Southwest Ohio 2026 Solar Co-op: Everything you want to know about going solar!
DESCRIPTION:Where: Virtual – https://www.mobilize.us/solarunitedneighbors/event/1079854/\nWhen: Friday\, November 20\, 12pm-1:30pm \nElectricity prices continue to soar\, but what can you do about it? Consider going solar through the Southwest Ohio 2026 Solar Co-op! The City of Cincinnati has teamed up with nonprofit partner Solar United Neighbors (SUN) and the City of Dayton to offer this program to residents across Southwest Ohio to help folks go solar with the guidance of the subject matter experts from SUN. \nWhat’s a solar co-op? Imagine getting hundreds of folks together and putting out a bid announcement to solar installers saying “We want to go solar. What deal can you give us?” Through this bulk purchasing approach\, the selected solar installer gets a lot of business and is able to offer the solar co-op members a discounted rate for their systems – usually about 10-20% cheaper than if they were to go solar on their own. Along the way\, SUN provides rooftop assessments\, education\, and is there to answer all the questions. They ensure co-op members have an easy solar purchasing experience with a vetted installer. \nThe co-op is a free resource and there is no obligation to go solar. It’s open to homeowners\, small businesses\, nonprofits\, and houses of worship throughout 12 counties in Southwest Ohio. \nThe deadline to join the co-op is December 1st. \nCome find out all about the solar co-op\, what going solar entails\, how to pay for it\, and more. Bring your questions!

SUMMARY:Fall 2026 Orchard Installation In Avon Woods Nature Center
DESCRIPTION:Join the Common Orchard Project in creating a new public orchard! \nOrchards can be less work to produce food over time compared to vegetable gardens\, but installation is quite labor intensive. To get these new public orchards off to a good start\, we are organizing these volunteer days to make the work lighter for all! Come learn how to plant trees\, fruit tree care\, and meet neighbors who care as much as you do. \nEvent Info: \nNovember 21\, Saturday\, 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM \nAvon Woods Nature Center \n4235 Paddock Road\, Cincinnati\, OH 45229 \nWe will be planting ~10 trees and laying down black plastic to remove the grass. If you are looking for a snapshot into what this might look like\, check out this video we created with a funding partner back in 2022. \nAll tools and gloves provided\, just bring a water bottle and wear appropriate outdoor clothing to dig holes and plant trees. \nAdditional Information: \nIf you are able to join and sign up\, please do follow through! It changes our plans and makes these days difficult if people change their minds at the last minute. We will give a reminder and notice of any extreme weather related changes of plans 2 days before the event. \nWe will have locally grown fruit and other snacks. \n\n      \n        \n      \n    \n

SUMMARY:Full Moon Walk: Beaver Moon at Rowe Woods
DESCRIPTION:Registration Requirements: Preregistration required. \nRecommended Audience: This program is designed for adults and children 12+. Children must be accompanied by an adult. \nProgram Description: Witness the night’s magic transform the trails as we marvel at the full moon and reveal natural history happenings on this quiet\, guided hike. Full Moon Walks provide rare opportunities to hike Cincinnati Nature Center trails when we’re normally closed. \nWhile each Full Moon Walk varies\, we generally stop periodically for natural history moments\, special readings\, or simply to admire the shadows cast by the full moon. As it’s nighttime\, the pace is slower. Leaders adjust the walking speed based on their group. \nWhat to Expect: On a Full Moon Walk\, you’ll take a 1-to-1.5-mile leisurely walk on a trail. \nWe avoid steps and stream crossings for safety.\nThe trails may be muddy during wetter times of the year\, but we’ll do our best to keep you dry.\nFor more information\, please see how to prepare for a night hike.\nPets are not permitted at Cincinnati Nature Center programs or events.\nProgram runs rain or shine.\nNote: Please arrive promptly for the walk’s start time. Gatehouse only remains open for 15 minutes after program start time. \nWhere to Meet: Registered participants will meet at the PlayScape Parking Lot at our Rowe Woods location (4949 Tealtown Rd.\, Milford\, OH 45150). \nPricing: Ticket fees include daily admission.

SUMMARY:Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop-multiple dates and times
DESCRIPTION:Registration Requirements: Preregistration required. \nRecommended Audience: This program is designed for adults and children ages 10 and up. Children must be accompanied by an adult. \nProgram Description: Handmade is heARTfelt! Great for families\, enjoy creating with your out-of-town holiday guests. Make a special gift or keepsake! \nMeet local ceramic artist Bonnie Mitchell and get a chance to work with her while learning how to carve your own tile. During this special hands-on workshop\, you’ll have 45 minutes to work with Bonnie to create your own keepsake tile using your design and a technique known as sgraffito. Participants will be notified when their creations are ready for pickup. \nAbout the Program Leader: This hands-on workshop will be led by Bonnie Mitchell\, a local professional artist who creates one-of-a-kind artworks in her Milford studio. She creates beautifully striking\, black and white sgraffito pottery that can be used for everyday purposes\, or just to add personal imagery to your home or office. \nWhat to Expect: This workshop will focus on the sgraffito technique used by area 19th-century potters to make expressive designs in their folk-art pottery. Sgraffito means to “scratch\,” and workshop participants will draw a design of their choosing into a damp clay slab and then carve out layers of the clay to make their image more purposeful. You can choose traditional black and white designs or create your own design for a special gift. After the workshop concludes\, Bonnie Mitchell will add the final glaze and kiln-fire your tile. Finished tiles will be returned to the Cincinnati Nature Center Nature Shop at a later date. Participants will be notified by email when tiles are available to pick up\, just in time to show off or give to a special person during the holidays. \nSaturday – 11/21/26\n10:00am – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop (sold out) \n11:00am – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop (sold out) \n12:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop (sold out) \n1:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop (sold out) \n2:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop \n3:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop \nSunday – 11/22/26\n10:00am – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop (sold out) \n11:00am – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop (sold out) \n12:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop (sold out) \n1:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop (sold out) \n2:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop (sold out) \n3:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop (sold out) \nSaturday – 11/28/26\n10:00am – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop \n11:00am – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop \n12:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop \n1:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop \n2:00pm – Create-Your-Own-Tile Workshop \n3:00pm-Create-Your-Own Tile Workshop\nAll materials will be provided.\nThe workshop starts on the hour.
