CANCELLED. If you are interested, join the wildflower walk on May 7. Pack up the kids and join Sue Cope on an adventure to see the delicate wildflowers that are the first to emerge in our woods. These plants are able to take advantage of the sunlight before the leaves open up in the tree canopy and shade the forest floor. They disappear back into the earth as spring progresses into summer. These early flowers provide nectar and pollinator for bees and other insects.
Registration required. sue.cope@lymelandtrust.org
Please leave your pets at home for this event. Thank you.
Sue Cope is the Environmental Director of the Lyme Land Trust, co-chair of the Lyme Pollinator Pathway, and a UConn Master Gardener.
Before you come on the walk, you can see many of the plants we will encounter by watching our enchanting new educational video, Spring Emergence: An Exploration of Wildflowers in Pleasant Valley and Jewett Preserves with Mike Zarfos, naturalist.
