This is one of our favorite times of year to walk the Bog Trail. Mosses expand after months of dehydration, mushrooms abound, and the leaves are starting to turn. On this guided nature walk we will talk about all things bog; how they form, their unique plants, and the role of bogs in protecting environmental health. Bring your bog questions and general curiosity! This program will be most interesting for adults and older kids (aged 14+), and will take place rain or shine, so come prepared for the weather.
This is a free event, but please consider making a donation to help support our education and restoration work!
Happy Independence Day! We hope your celebrations are joyous and nature filled! SHADOW Lake Nature Preserve's trails, the Richter Education Center, and office will be closed in observance of the holiday. We will reopen on Friday.
