Join the Westmoreland Land Trust for an evening nature walk at the Otto and Magdalene Ackermann Nature Preserve in North Huntingdon Township. We will be looking for native pawpaw trees and also enjoying late summer butterflies at this peaceful nature preserve. This guided walk will be slow-paced, but will involve clambering down some steep sections of trail. Please wear sturdy walking shoes and dress for the weather.
Join us for World Migratory Bird Day at St. Xavier Nature Preserve. The century-old trees of the Grove are a good place to see many of our native birds as well as the occasional spring migrant. This guided walk will be slow-paced and level, and birders of all abilities are welcome to join us. Please bring your own binoculars and dress for the weather.
Join WLT’s AmeriCorps Service Member Monica Rebar for a morning walk through St. Xavier Nature Preserve in Latrobe. This historic site contains several examples of wild plants that can be safely foraged for food. This guided walk will be slow-paced, but will involve some gentle slopes and uneven walkways. Please wear good walking shoes and sunscreen.
Join the WLT and the Westmoreland Pollinator Partners in raising awareness for Pollinator Gardens!
We will have a table set up at the Twin Lakes Meadow to stamp Passports for everyone participating in this year’s garden tour.
We will also be launching this summer’s new Story Walk feature for families with children. Come meet Rebecca Hirsch, the author of “Plants Can’t Sit Still”, from 10 AM to Noon at the Meadow (if rain, at the Greensburg Hempfield Area Library) and read her book by walking through the meadow.
We hope to see you there!
