Please dress for the weather and wear sturdy footwear. This is a free, family-friendly program and pre-registration is required. The address for the nature preserve will be provided via confirmation email.

Start your December off with a guided hike at beautiful Horton Grove Nature Preserve. As you wander through the grasslands and forest, our TLC volunteer will teach you about winter birds in folklore. Families and pets (on leashes) are welcome. Please dress for the weather and wear sturdy footwear.

*Rescheduled from November 16th to December 7th due to inclement weather.* 

Join TLC as we learn about the animals that wake up when we go to sleep. We’ll discover how they use their senses to navigate the night, and we’ll practice a few of their calls. We’ll finish off the night with a fire and s’mores.

This program is open to families with children ages 4 and up. Remember to dress for the weather, and wear clothes that you don’t mind getting a bit dirty.

Find a new way to connect with nature with a power hike at Johnston Mill Nature Preserve. TLC volunteer, Jon Ward, will take you on an aerobic journey through the quiet morning forest. This is a great event for those looking to get some serious exercise. Leashed dogs are welcome to join.
