April 22, 2023 Earth Day Hikes
Deer Run Nature Preserve Trail Head
940 Camp Arden Rd., Dummerston, VT

Make a Difference on Earth Day! Remove invasive plants that are threatening our biodiversity or participate in an educational hike.
Choices will include:

Deer Run Meander - Ramble through the woods with naturalists looking for signs of spring and other natural wonders.

Intermediate Level Guided Hike - Roger Haydock, GMC trail builder extraordinaire, will lead this hike and describe the geology and other natural features of the area.

Rigorous Hike - Join naturalist/ecologist Dan Dubie for a rigorous hike to the Monument, with the option of working with Green Mountain Conservancy board members on removing a patch of Japanese Barberry near the Monument or going off on your own to explore the Shoulder Trail or Ravine Trail.

Trailhead Invasive Removal - Work with GMC Board Members to clear Glosssy Buckthorn from the area around the trailhead on Camp Arden Road. Tools and instruction will be provided. Removing these invasives allows natural vegetation critical to our biodiversity to survive and thrive.
