About this Event

As we wander beneath the Oaks and Sycamores, we’ll explore the gift of motherhood in nature while checking nests we know about, and looking for fresh ones created this spring! Chris and Moe will share fascinating insights about the world of native plants, local creatures, and bird mothers.

This easy to moderate discovery tour is perfect for mothers, grandmothers, families, and anyone who wants to celebrate the important female figures in their life through a morning together in nature.

Does your mom want an experience and not more stuff? Join us! People who miss their mothers are welcome too. We will have extra love for everyone.
