Description
Presented by Andre Weltman, Chairman, Friends of Pine Grove Furnace State Park.
Weltman will discuss the impact of the iron industry—in terms of ore pits, greenhouse gasses, and labor—plus the largest (and lasting) legacy of ironmaking in our region, its affect
on the forests. This impact on the forests affected the way of life for area residents.
He will talk about the remaining visible legacy of the iron industry. Free, but registration required; call 717-762-0373 or email to info@natureandcultureinstitute.org.
