“Nature Did It
First” at DCP
Flight, nature did it first. Velcro, nature did it first. Umbrellas,
nature did it first. Join Darke County Parks for a program on
biomimicry on Thursday, January 19th at 6:30pm at Shawnee Prairie.
Biomimicry is when we look to nature for inspiration and innovation for
our own tools, buildings and even art. The adaptations of plants and
animals have long been the catalyst for a countless number of human
inventions. Spend an evening discovering the items you use every day
and how nature did it first and, most likely, better! Remember to call
the Nature Center for more information or to register for this free
program at (937) 548-0165.
Photo-Burrs like these have hook shaped spine that was the inspiration
for the “hook and loop tape” known as Velcro.
