Family Nature Walk 10/11/20 @ 10:00 AM
Lace up your shoes for a nature walk at Freshkills Park! Freshkills Park staff will take you behind the scenes to visit areas that are currently closed to the public. On this one-mile walk, you’ll use a nature journal (provided) to learn about the different plants and animals found in the woods, wetlands, and grasslands at Freshkills Park.
There is a $10 suggested donation per participant. Your donation supports education, programming, and research at the Freshkills Park Alliance and makes programs like this possible.
