Saturday, June 6th 10am - 12pm | Piney River Railway Trail | By Donation + Registration Required
Join herbalist Meg Madden for a monthly educational journey onto the land.
These in-person events are a casual way to connect with each other in person while learning about the native and medicinal plants of our region! Sites will vary each month as we explore the surrounding flora discussing ecology, microclimates, and anything else we want to chat about while we meet the plant beings with whom we share home.
These events will be rain or shine unless the weather is particularly bad. Dress appropriately for outdoor adventuring (hats, sun protection, weather protection, bug protection, comfort, etc.) and bring what you'll need to keep yourself hydrated and nourished (snacks, water, etc.). Other things you may want to bring are loupes to look closely at things, field guides, cameras, and notebooks.
We will meet on site and begin walking no later than 10:05. See you there!
This Month's Location: Piney River Railway Trail
We will meet at the Roses Mill parking area. To access the Roses Mill trailhead, take US 29 to SR 56 West at Colleen; turn right onto SR 56 and go about 4 miles to the left turn onto Roses Mill Road/SR 674. The trailhead is about 1.4 miles farther, just over the river and on the left. We will be taking a break to dip in the river, so bring swimming gear if you’d like! Please note that we might not make it back to the parking lot within two hours, so please plan accordingly. You are always welcome to head back to your car any time.
Registration is required. Suggested donation $5-$15 to support gas and time, sent by venmo to @Meg-Madden1 or paid in cash on site.
