Get ready to explore the wild side! Join us on Tuesday, April 14th, from 5:30–6:30 PM for a guided Wildflower Hike at Starr's Cave Nature Center. We’ll meet at the shelter house before heading out on an adventure to discover the edible (and not-so-edible!) plants growing all around us. During this hands-on hike, you’ll learn how to safely identify common spring wildflowers, common wild edibles, hear fun facts about their uses, and gain a deeper appreciation for the natural world right at your feet. Whether you're a curious beginner or just love being outdoors, this program is a great way to connect with nature in a whole new way. This is a free event. No registration is required, but it is highly encouraged. Register here! Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring water. Come ready to walk, learn, and maybe even see your surroundings a little differently! Please dress for the weather. For event updates or cancellations, visit the Starr’s Cave Nature Center Facebook page or call (319) 753-5808.
