Join us for a hike to appreciate some of our region's most elusive native wildflowers, spring ephemerals.

From there, we can carpool 1 minute south to "Old Hwy 218 S Parking" to begin the hike. https://maps.app.goo.gl/VqyTNPfxL36HemuQ9

Early-blooming wildflowers such as Spring Beauty, Dutchman’s Breeches, Blue Phlox, Bloodroot, White Trout Lily, Toothwort, Hepatica, and Bellwort appear fleetingly at Ryerson's Woods before the Oak-Hickory woodland canopy closes.

Master Naturalist Eric Miller will be on hand to highlight the unique life cycle and ecological role of these fleeting blooms, and the crucial support they provide to early pollinators.

This event is for members only, however a few spots may be opened up to non-members the week of the event.
