Winter is an underrated time of year to begin or improve your plant identification skills because many plants are dormant: making them easier to differentiate. Join Shadow Naturalist Cecilia to learn identification tips and tricks for these plants and any mushrooms we may find along the way. You will find yourself marveling at the nuances you can observe in the nature that surrounds you!
Guided nature walks happen rain or shine, so please dress to keep yourself warm and dry. We will walk slowly to allow time for observation, but the path is uneven or uphill in some places. This is a free event, but please consider making a donation to help support our education and restoration efforts!
To register please send an email to education@shadowhabitat.org with the number of people in your party as well as the ages of those under 18.
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.
