Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: NeuroNetwork for Emerging Therapies

It is impossible to ignore the evidence of the past decade - wildfires have made air on the west coast incredibly hazardous and children have been poisoned by drinking water at crucial ages of development. The environment we have created for ourselves is a serious threat to our health.

Eva Feldman, MD, PhD, Director of the NeuroNetwork for Emerging Therapies, will moderate the 30-minute mini symposium that discusses both global and local impacts that the environment has on our health. Along with Dr. Feldman, presentations will be made by Jonathan Overpeck, PhD, Dean of the School for Environment and Sustainability, who will address climate change and environmental justice; Stuart Batterman, PhD, a professor from the U-M School of Public Health, who will discuss how contaminants in the air affect your health; and Stephen Goutman, MD, MS, director of the Pranger ALS Clinic, who will talk about the association between environmental pollution and ALS.

Organized By: Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (50+)

Rebecca Van Dyke, a birder and OLLI member, introduces us to her world of birding and the added joy of exercise, outdoor beauty and identifying birds.

Kelly Vore, owner of Downtown Home and Garden, will share her bird experience with feeding and watering tips as well as discuss the challenges of co- existing with squirrels and other critters and managing that never- ending quandary.

Rebecca Van Dyke is a retired UM physician who has lived in Ann Arbor for 30 years. As the eldest child of a college biology professor (who knew his ornithology), she knew little aside from some of the common birds. When she retired six years ago, she started to travel and realized that it was fun and challenging to look for and identify birds.

She has traveled in the US and abroad, often with knowledgeable guides. This past year she has explored many of the wonderful parks and nature preserves in the area, combining exercise (walking), viewing beautiful nature and finding and identifying birds. Preregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the event will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the event. Once you register, you will receive details about purchasing and pick up before the event.

Downtown Home and Garden has been providing quality birdseed and feeders for Ann Arbor and our surrounding area for decades. It was the first to bring thistle feed to Michigan and it continues to receive weekly deliveries of seed from L & D Finkbeiner Farm, from Saline. Its drive-thru barn (originally built for horse and buggy in 1905) easily accommodates today’s vehicles for swift drive thru and load and go. Quick, convenient and out of the elements!

There have been a lot of news stories lately about the rise in popularity of E-bikes (electric bikes). But what’s all the fuss about? Worldwide, E-bikes are the fastest growing sector of the bike industry, and there are several reasons for their rapid rise in appeal. We will look at what exactly is an E-bike and why they are so sought after with the Baby Boomer generation, and among commuters, businesses, and municipalities.

There are so many different types of E-bikes on the market that it can be overwhelming to learn about them all. We will try to simplify it, going over the fundamentals, to see whether an E-bike might be right for you and how you should choose which type will suit you best.

Presenters Jim Summers and Kim Mayes own and operate H.E.H. Human Electric Hybrids. They have been in the E-bike business for eight years.

Jim was a controls engineer, cycling to work 20 miles each way when he built his first E-bike to make his commute easier. He immediately saw the potential for E-bikes to enable more people to ride a bike. He also envisioned a future when more people would replace car trips with bicycle trips. Jim started building E-bikes for others, then left his engineering job in 2014 to sell E-bikes full time. Jim’s wife, Kim, joined him in the business in 2018.

Preregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the presentation will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the event.

In 1712, Botanist Mark Catesby traveled to Virginia collecting seeds and specimens, beginning a decades-long journey towards publication of The Natural History of Carolina, Florida, and the Bahama Islands
(1731-1743).
In 1768, botanical draughtsman Sydney Parkinson joined Captain Cook's voyage to the Islands of Tahiti, in the employment of naturalist Joseph Banks. Although he died on the voyage, plates made from his sketches were preserved in the British Museum.
In 1819, businessman John James Audubon was bankrupted by a national financial crisis and set out on an expedition down the Mississippi River to pursue his dream of documenting America's avian life, ultimately leading to The Birds of America (1827-1838).
This study group led by Juli McLoone will meet Wednesday March 24.
Preregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.

102 Years of Local Food: the past, present, and future of the Ann Arbor Farmer’s Market (April 21, 2021 3:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/79827 79827-20507634@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, April 21, 2021 3:30pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (50+)

As much of Ann Arbor has become unrecognizable to long-time residents, the Ann Arbor Farmers Market is a mainstay, both as a provider of local produce and products and a gathering space. Learn about the history of the Ann Arbor Farmer’s Market, how the global pandemic has impacted operations, and how we plan on bringing this vibrant market and community space into the future.

Presenter Stefanie T. Stauffer, PhD has been the Ann Arbor Farmer’s Market Manager since May 2020, bringing 12 years of local food expertise to the role. She is the former Program Manager of Tilian Farm Development Center, a now defunct incubator for beginning farmers in Ann Arbor Township. She has also taught the Sociology of Race and Ethnic Relations at Washtenaw Community College since 2015, with an emphasis on food sovereignty and environmental justice movements. As a veteran Ypsilanti Farmer’s Markets vendor who sells her products at Argus Farm Stop and to local restaurants as well, she has been feeding our community since 2010 as Nightshade Farm. She is also a board member of Growing Hope, a former Greenbelt Advisory Commissioner, and a former board member of the Ypsilanti Food Cooperative. As a farmer, farmer’s market vendor, educator, activist, and beginning farmer mentor, she has been deeply rooted in our local food system since her dissertation project on sustainable agriculture brought her back to Michigan in 2008.

In 2014, she traveled to Slow Food International’s Salone del Gusto e Terra Madre in Torino, Italy as a US delegate representing Southeast Michigan family farmers, food artisans, and Slow Food Ark of Taste producers.
