12:00 Noon - Plastics, Plants, Pollinators, and People - Raymond Najjar, Penn State University and Liz McDowell, MD Native Plant Society

Plastics are remarkable materials that have transformed our lives in a relatively short time. Their unique properties make them extremely useful but at the same time a menacing environmental and human health threat. Microplastics have found their way around the globe, impacting both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. This presentation will cover the rapid growth of plastics production, the fate of plastics in the environment, the impacts of plastics on plants, wildlife, and people, and potential solutions to what may be viewed as a crisis comparable to global warming and biodiversity loss. 

Dr. Najjar is a Professor of Oceanography at Penn State University, where he has been teaching since 1993. He conducts research on topics in oceanography and climate science, focusing on how climate change and human activity influence coastal waters, such as the Chesapeake Bay. Plastics pollution is a current research interest of his, particularly the role that estuaries play in trapping river-borne plastics. He also recently developed a general education course at Penn State on plastics in the environment. 

Ms. McDowell has called Mountain Maryland home since 1979. It was here while working on her MS in Wildlife Management at the Appalachian Lab that she discovered nature and a passion to share it with others. As coordinator of the Western Mountains Chapter of MNPS, she manages the annual MT MD Native Plant Festival, leads field trips, teaches wildflower identification, and gives presentations on regional biodiversity. 

2:00 PM - Native Plant Garden Tour - Visiting New Germany's demonstration garden is always a joy.  Learn about the 70+ plants native to our region from Christine Campe-Price, Friends of NGSP.

All day - MMNPF Bingo - Explore the entire festival and win a prize!

All day - Nature Center - Investigate the cool animals found at the Park!
