Join Park Ranger Taylor Moorefield for a walk through the park grounds and trails to see and learn about useful native plants and trees. From the so-called weeds in your yard to towering Tulip Poplars and deep forest species, learn how Native Americans and frontier folk made natural medicines and nutritious meals from the wild flora of our landscape. This program is free and suitable for all ages and will last approximately 45 minutes. Meet behind the visitor center at the bottom of the ramp.
