April 21 - Forest Walk: What Are Ephemeral Wildflowers?

Past event
Apr 21, 2024, 10 AM to 12 PM

Join the White River Land Collaborative's Forest Management Team for a walk through the forest where our focus will be on taking a closer look at the ephemeral wildflowers that bloom in early spring before the trees leaf out.

This walk is timing and weather dependent, rescheduling will occur if the flowers are not yet in bloom on the 21st.

Additional details:

- Note that some of these flowers grow along the ridge top, and therefore some aspects of the walk will go up steep hillsides. Footwear appropriate for hiking is recommended.
- Please bring any food and water you may need.
- Registration is required and the event is capped at 25 participants. Please let us know if you aren't able to attend so we can open up your spot.
- Please arrive closer to 9:30 AM. The walk will begin at 10 AM and end at noon.
- Children are welcome, but event content will be geared toward adults.
- Make note restrooms will not be available.
- We ask that you leave your pets at home as we are on a working farm.
