Did you know the area behind our neighborhood is actually a Preserve? Tapteal Greenway is hosting one of their largest educational, outdoor events April 29 in the Preserve, formally known as Amon Creek Natural Preserve (ACNP). The Wildlands Walk is a great opportunity for all ages to see what a treasure we have in the Preserve, including its wetland and shrub steppe ecosystems.
The Wildlands Walk begins at Claybell Park at 9:00 a.m. and consists of a guided 1.5 mile walk through the Preserve. There will be stops at learning stations along the trail, where experts will be providing information and answering questions about:
· Geology of ACNP and Amon Basin
· Insects and reptiles of ACNP
· Mammals of ACNP
· Native plant restoration activity in ACNP
This is a fun event, and I highly recommend it. I hope you can participate!
