Designated one of the “Best Natural Areas” in M-NCPPC Parks, the 630-acre Blockhouse Point Conservation Park contains a variety of habitats: from upland forests to floodplain forests to rock outcrops to streams and wetlands. As we enter meteorological spring, some trees may be bare while others are budding or even blooming, and ephemeral wildflowers may be emerging from the leaf litter. Botanist Carole Bergmann will lead the group as we explore the park and observe the biodiversity of plant life focusing on seasonal aspects and ecological niches. Expect a couple mile hike on natural surface trails, with some rocky and uneven terrain with uphill and downhill stretches. REGISTER.
