Join us for a family friend Lichen Exploration hike!
Let’s get to likin’ lichen on this ramble through the swift creek bottomlands. Come explore the special symbiosis that lichens use to live, and learn about the different kinds of lichens in the piedmont woods around us. Play some nature games, build your skills of observation by entering their teeny tiny world, and start to notice the lichen all around you! Get Wild! Hikes and activities are most appropriate for 5 years and up. Wear layers and bring a water bottle. Please register all members of the family attending, including children and adults. This is a free event, but pre-registration is required.
If registration is full for this hike, please email Meera Butalia at [email protected] to be added to the waitlist. Please remember to wear good walking shoes and bring a full water bottle. The parking area is very limited so please carpool with your guests if you can. Please make sure to let us know if your plans have changed so that we can admit anyone on the waitlist!
