This is your opportunity to learn about the wildflowers popping up in our local forests right now. After a short program indoor, where you will find out why these plants produce flowers in the spring, Robert Ayotte will lead a walk along the Discovery Center trails to see what is budding and blooming. Hand lenses will be useful.
