Life on the Eastern Shore is special. It’s a quiet, peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the metropolitan region. The impacts of climate change – warming temperatures, rising sea levels, and extreme weather – threaten to disrupt life on the Eastern Shore if we don’t take action. We need individuals, businesses, and communities rallying together to preserve our land and protect our history. What is important to YOU? What is worth investing in, worth protecting, worth fighting for? Join ESLC as we think about the history and culture of the Eastern Shore, and how we can look to the past in order to build a vibrant and resilient future for this special region. Participants will learn from local and regional experts about protecting our land, towns, and people against the impacts of climate change. We will engage in inspiring conversations about the aspects of life on the Eastern Shore which are most valuable to us and how we can work together to establish a resilient community now and in the future.

Attendees should come with an appetite for stimulating discussion…and delicious, locally-sourced foods!
