"Our sincerest appreciation goes to Dr. Cathy Jacobs, who recently made an incredibly generous $15,000 gift to Desert Studies. The funds will go towards renovating the site bathrooms, an effort to make them welcoming for all genders." https://t.co/uKQEeT9NwV

We were lucky to be able to host this amazing group of researchers at the Desert Studies Center in October to support their soil research in the Mojave Desert. Be sure to check out the #CZ170 project, these scientists are doing incredibly important and interesting work!
