SUMMARY:Spring Ephemeral Botany Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join Women on the Land for an educational wildflower walk! Early spring is an exciting time\, and the changing of the seasons is often marked by the emergence of spring ephemeral wildflowers. These plants have a short window of time in which they bloom\, often appearing after the melting of snow but before trees leaf out. Spring ephemerals are especially diverse in rich hardwood forests\, which are common throughout Berkshire County. Women on the Land will be joined by Peter Grima\, DCR Service Forester and botanist\, to explore the wonder of these short-lived blooms at Field Farm\, a mix of fields and forests overlying limestone bedrock. You will learn about the ecology\, identification\, and beauty of these plants that\, if you aren’t there at the right time\, you’ll miss them until next year! \nRegistrants should come prepared for potentially wet/muddy trail conditions. The walk will cover 2-3 miles on existing trails over more or less level terrain. Optional items include a hand lens\, binoculars\, and wildflower field guide. \nRegister at this link: https://tinyurl.com/SpringEphemeralWalk. \nDATE: Saturday\, April 25 \nTIME: 1:00pm – 3:00pm \nLOCATION: Field Farm Reservation\, Williamstown\, MA
