Albeit a quieter summer, ThINC hosted several events, including community science activities, gatherings at the People's Apothecary Garden, and workshops and presentations led by members of the community as well as visitors.
This issue of The Ripple touches on two of our summer events: sea star monitoring and a book launch.
Andy Lamb shares his observations and expert take on sea star wasting disease.
And Ann Eriksson provides an uplifting review of author and environmental advocate Sheila Harrington's recent book: Voices for the Islands: Thirty Years of Nature Conservation on the Salish Sea.
