Two guided hikes will be led by refuge naturalists. The first hike will be a family friendly hike about oak trees and wildlife (1:00 – 2:00 PM). The second is open to anyone interested in birding and will focus on bird language and identification by sound (3:00 – 5:00 PM).
The Plankhouse will be open from 12:00 PM – 4:00 PM. Explore hands-on displays inside the Plankhouse, sample stinging nettle tea, and enjoy children’s activities throughout the day.
