Nature Walk at the Senior Center
Monday, September 23rd at 1 pm
ECOS is bringing its decades-old nature walks to Glenville's Senior Center. Weather permitting, we'll start with a crash course in northeast trees, then take a casual stroll along the "marginal ecozone" between forest and clearing. For the intrepid, we may venture into the woods, though poison ivy will dictate our paths. There are plenty of "invasive species" to identify and discuss, as well as our native northeasterners. (As gardeners already know, these can also be invasive.) This is a peak time for fall wildflowers, and we'll discover together what beauties this patch of Glenville has to offer. If weather is not feeling permissive, the rain date is September 30th. For over 50 years, ECOS has been providing environmental experiences to develop enjoyment and understanding of the natural world and to foster action to preserve it.
