Picnic Area.
Explore plants, both native and introduced, with two Virginia Master Naturalists and Native Plant Society members. The walk will begin at the Pollinator Plot near the entrance to the Sensory Explorers’ Trail in the picnic area, where we will see what is in bloom and observe insects that might be visiting. Then we will walk the Sensory Explorers’ Trail to discover some of the park’s native and invasive plants and learn some identification tips and invasive plant control techniques. This guided walk will last approximately one hour.
