Medicinal Plants Walk–CANCELED

Educational, Events

Join Miranda Resnick for a Medicinal Plants Walk on the Hardwick Trails this Saturday, July 13 at 9:00. Miranda describes this event:
“Wildcrafting herbs for food and medicine is gaining more and more popularity in the mainstream and can be a wonderful way to explore our relationship to nature and connect with our own bodies and spirits. On this slow-paced medicinal plant walk through the Hardwick Trails, we will weave together practical information about identification, medicinal uses, with a deepening of our connection to the plants in respectful and sustainable ways. We will not be harvesting herbs from the trails, but there will be some samples for tasting.”

All are welcome to this free event sponsored by The Hardwick Trails Committee. We meet at the Kiosk behind Hazen Union School. Questions? Norma Wiesen @ 472-6517.

SATURDAY BIRD WALK FINALE ON THE HARDWICK TRAILS

Birding, Events

The Every-Saturday-in-May Bird Walks on the Hardwick Trails’ finale is this Saturday (May 25) at 7:00am with Marie LaPre Grabon. Marie has truly “earned her wings” in birding and has enormous enthusiasm for helping folks hear and see these creatures. This past week has brought a crescendo of warblers to our area (along with many others), so we are in for a treat.

The highest total number of species on a single walk so far this season is 29. If you like competition, maybe you want to come and help make this final walk’s score even higher!

We meet at the Trails kiosk behind the Hazen Union parking lot.

The Hardwick Trails Committee sponsors these free events and welcomes seasoned and beginner birders of all ages. Questions? Call Norma Wiesen at 802-472-6517.
