Garden Insects and Native Plant Swap
An hour on the bugs that actually help a garden, plus a swap. Bring a native plant you have too much of, leave with something you do not have. Saturday morning at the nature center.
Family Nature Night: Animal Signs
Tracks, scat, chewed twigs, all the evidence animals leave behind when you are not looking. An evening walk for families, ninety minutes, ending about when the light goes.
School's Out, Get Outside!
Local schools are closed and Briar Bush runs a full day outdoors: hikes, live animal encounters, games in the woods. Drop-off at 8:30, pickup by 3:30, registration required.
