Take a guided tour of the native wildflower meadow at the north end of Peach Plaza in Twin Lakes County Park. The native plants should be at the peak of their bloom, hosting native pollinators such as butterflies, bees, and moths. Expert naturalists from the Westmoreland Land Trust and Westmoreland Pollinator Partners will be on hand to answer your questions. Wear sturdy shoes, sunscreen, and dress for the weather.
Come to Hempfield Township Park for the first in a series of family-friendly nature workshops designed for children from 5 to 12 years old along with an accompanying adult. Each session will explore the Westmoreland Land Trust’s Nature Backpacks, which are available for you to checkout at the HTAC desk.
In this session, we’ll explore the Birds backpack and examine real feathers and nests, learn to use binoculars and field guides to identify our local backyard birds, sing a few bird songs, build a birdfeeder, and make a unique piece of feather art.
Note: preregistration with Hempfield Township is required, with a fee of $15.00 per student. Registration opens on May 1st for Hempfield Township Residents and May 8th for non-residents. Deadline is 7 days prior to each date.
