NATURE PARK UPDATE

News from the Gladstone Nature Park – May 2, 2021

While gatherings of multiple people are still not advised at this time, visiting our parks is a safe way to cope with the COVID-19 Pandemic. Getting outdoors, hiking, and viewing the trees and birds are all recommended activities during this trying time and can help us feel healthy. Visit the Gladstone Nature Park, download a Scavenger Hunt and walk the trails. See how many plants and birds you can identify. Check out the Butterfly/Pollinator Hill and Mason Bee houses. Spring is here and nature is exploding all around us.

Be well,
Friends of Gladstone Nature Park
