About the event
Spend a quiet Sunday morning seeing the forest through the eyes of a master botanist. We are excited to welcome back Dr. Linda Rohleder of the Wild Woods Restoration Project to lead an educational stroll through the diverse trails of the Nancy Conger West Brook Preserve. This walk is focused on the art of observation. As we explore the New Jersey Highlands, Dr. Rohleder will share her expert identification tricks for recognizing the native wildflowers, shrubs, and trees that define our local landscape. Whether you are a budding naturalist or a longtime enthusiast, you’ll leave with a deeper understanding of the secret language of our native flora and the vital role they play in the ecosystem we are working together to protect.
