We will investigate plants that have snuck into Alabama from other countries and why they are so detrimental to our ecosystems. We will enjoy a hike looking and pulling up any of these bad invasive plants and planting some good native plants!

Explore the preserve and learn something new each month about plants, wildlife and nature with a trained naturalist who will offer your family fun opportunities for hands-on learning, exploration, and exercise! Discovery Hikes are offered the second Tuesday of each month from 3:30 – 4:30 p.m. For families with children ages 5 to 12. Each month features a new seasonal theme. Groups meet at the pavilion. Guided tours are free. Donations are welcomed. Cancelled in the event of rain. Hikes are not offered in June. July and August hike is offered at 9:00 a.m.
