Upcoming dates:
Sun Apr 14 1:30 "Looking for Ephemerals"
Join Naturalist Alex Singer or take a walk on your own to look for Spring Ephemerals at Turville Point. Trilliums and other beautiful early wildflowers take advantage of available sunlight before trees and bushes fully leaf out and provide important sources of nectar for bees before other plants bloom. Try using the Seek app to take a photo and help identify what you see along the trail! Note: Please stay on trails since this is a Conservation Park.
