5:00 pm - 6:30 pm
Join The Wild Seed Project’s Heather McCargo to learn about plant life in Maine. In this walk, we will learn about some of the wildflowers, ferns, shrubs and trees native to Maine. Heather will talk about which species are adaptable to gardens and developed landscapes, the threats to their survival, and inspire you with their unusual reproductive strategies and edible and medicinal properties. Learning to recognize the native species in our midst is the first step to advocating for their preservation.
Please dress appropriately with footwear for possible wet walking. Group size is limited. All participants must register at least at least 48 hours in advance of the program and will receive notification of changes or cancellation.
