Please help us welcome Sydney Jackson, who was selected to be our five week research student as part of our partner organization Smithsonian-Mason School of Conservation’s (@smconservation) Endangered Species Conservation program
Sydney discovered her love for the environment in high school after taking AP Environmental Science and after graduating from George Mason University this summer, she hopes to find work as a forest conservationist focused on protecting North American forest ecosystems 
While here at VOF’s Preserve at Bull Run Mountains, she will be helping our staff continue their exciting ethnobotanical research project. Stay tuned for more updates on that!
