Upcoming programs:

Vernal Pool Walk

New date and time:

Saturday, March 28th beginning at 11:00 a.m.

Join Wildlife Biologist Paul Benjunas and Naturalist Laura Rogers-Castro for a hike on the Beaver Marsh Trail to the vernal pool at Sessions Woods. Learn what makes a vernal pool such a special habitat and have an opportunity to see some of the species that rely on these seasonal wetlands. Depending on the timing of early spring weather, the pool may be alive with croaking wood frogs! The group will also stop at several other types of habitats along the way to discuss the importance of habitat management. The excursion will be approximately 2 miles roundtrip. Appropriate shoes for a gravel, woodland trail are recommended. Meet at the gazebo in the parking lot.
