Upcoming dates:

Sun Jan 11 1:30 "Snowflakes and Subnivians" at Turville Point Conservation Park

Join Naturalist Andria Blattner with FOOT Friends of Olin Turville on a guided walk to discover the magic of winter at Turville Point.  Learn how snowflakes form and why snow is important to plants and animals over winter.  We will look for signs of subnivians - creatures that dwell beneath the snow!  Enjoy the beautiful trails and views across Lake Monona to downtown Madison.  Dress warm.  We may have a campfire with hot cocoa and smores after the walk.
