Winter Discovery Walk
The light returns, days are getting longer, and despite winter weather, a lot is going on in the fields and forest. Join certified arborist Mike Rolli for our Winter Discovery Walk in Glen Providence Park to see how our local flora and fauna are preparing for spring. Those who attended Mike’s previous walks know the remarkable depth and breadth of his knowledge and the fascinating details he shares. Mike has worked on an extensive botanical survey of the species found in the glen.
Come out of hibernation as we begin our ninth consecutive year of events in Glen Providence Park. We may even uncover hidden dwellings of some of our more secretive woodland denizens!
