May 19 at Darlin Creek Preserve

Wednesday, May 19

We invite you to spend the day at our beautiful Darlin Creek Preserve. This preserve has three miles of walking trails, upland forests, beaver and other wildlife activity, and Lake Lucinda – something for everyone to enjoy! The stewardship task for the day will be working to remove Scot’s Broom along one of our trails; this preserve was previously logged and removing invasives like Scot’s broom allows the land to return a more natural, sustainable state. We will take some time to allow new visitors to see the property, too.

Group sizes will be capped at 10 people total, so it is very important to RSVP all guests for this event.

10:00 am – 2:00 pm
