12 – 2 p.m.
Get outside and walk with us!
Starting at Penny Road Pond in Spring Creek Forest Preserve, Friends of the Forest Preserve staff and local land managers will lead our group through one of Cook County’s most unique grassland preserves. The walk will include information about native plants and wildlife, local hiking opportunities, a brief stop to collect wildflower seeds, and all the beauty of an Illinois prairie!
This walk is approximately 2.5 miles. While not a very difficult trip, it will involve a hill and mowed grass trails. Please be prepared with sturdy footwear, long pants, and water bottles. For more information, please contact Peter Whitney at peter@fotfp.org.
This walk is free, but please register. This walk is being offered in partnership with REI Co-op, and we’re thankful for their support.
