Wildflower Hike (Ages 5+)

Nothing says spring like ephemeral wildflowers! Join our park naturalist for a hike along the Roanoke River to look for wildflowers and other signs of nature awakening in the new season! Participants will each get a wildflower checklist and the opportunity to make a wildflower “seed bomb” to take home and use in their own yard! Children must be accompanied by a registered/paid adult. Please dress for the weather and bring a water bottle.
