Earth Day: Celebrate Signs of Spring
Celebrate Earth Day a few days early with a nature walk. We’ll take a brief look at the origins of the holiday, celebrated every April 22 since 1970. Then we’ll head into the sanctuary to search for early-blooming wildflowers and other signs that spring has arrived. The walk will emphasize plant identification and natural history, with a sprinkling of poetry and readings along the way.
Please note: Children ages 10+ are welcome to register if accompanied by a registered adult.
