Join us for a family day of learning and exploring at Bald Hill Farm on Saturday\, May 11th\, from 10am-1pm! \nLearn how we protect bee and butterfly species and stroll through our restored meadows to find blooming wildflowers and pollinators at work!

Some snacks will be provided. The event will run from 10am – 1pm and if you would like to bring a picnic lunch to enjoy afterwards\, you are welcome to do so! \nAccessibility notes: We will play games and learn about pollinators in an indoor/outdoor space and will then hike about a half mile on a gravel road to reach the restored prairie.

Restrooms will be available at the start of the day\, but there are no restrooms at the planting location. \nLocation: We will be meeting at Bald Hill Farm on part of the property that is typically closed to the public.

SUMMARY:One Mile Walk at Evergreen
DESCRIPTION:Nature explorers of all ages are invited to join us for this second in a series of one mile walks with Greenbelt Land Trust. This event will be paced to be suitable for those new to hiking\, families with children\, or for those who enjoy a slower\, more rambling pace. This time we will explore our Evergreen property just south of Philomath which has multiple vernal pools and wetland areas.  It is not usually open to the public\, so this is a great chance to get to see a bit of this gorgeous location! We will traverse fairly flat\, but uneven terrain with many soggy spots and ponds so wearing waterproof\, rubber boots is a great idea. We will have a few to loan out at the beginning of the walk for those who need them.  Once we reach the the pools\, participants can use dip nets and trays to get a look at the many aquatic insects and invertebrates that are a hidden\, but fascinating part of these wet and wonderful ecosystems.  Registration in advance is required!
