Spring Wildflower Hike

It's spring ephemeral season! Join us as we hike the Mount Saint John Nature Preserve in search of these fleeting floral beauties. The ephemerals, who complete the entire above-ground portion of their life cycle before the trees leaf out, include some of our most beloved species - trilliums, Dutchman's breeches, Jacob's ladder, Trout lily, twinleaf, bloodroot and many others. Join MEEC staff for a trip through the Marianist Nature Preserve to see these fascinating plants and learn all about their relationships with ants, bees and more! This is a free program, but RSVPs are requested by Wednesday April 12.

We'll gather beginning at 3:45 in Parking Lot C. For a map and directions to the property, please click here.
