Enjoy the crisp winter air as a Riverbend staff member leads a hike through our preserve. Along the way, learn more about Riverbend’s programs and upcoming projects while enjoying the field, forest and stream ecosystems on the grounds.
The hike will start at the Snider Barn – site of Riverbend’s Aquaponics Greenhouse. Before setting out, they will briefly discuss Aquaponics and how it is used in Riverbend’s nature-based STEM education programming. From there, the group will explore various areas around the preserve including the field, forest, pond, and stream ecosystems. On the hike, the group will search for signs of animal life, look for tracks, and learn about amazing winter adaptations.Â
Well behaved, leashed dogs are welcome.
