Celebrate Earth Week

It's Earth Week! Celebrate everything nature by taking a walk at the Fairyslipper Forest Nature Reserve to view the delicate pink calypso orchids (also known as fairyslippers) that bloom there for only a short few weeks in the spring. 

We counted a total of 149 on Monday!  And 219 On Tuesday

As always, stay on the path and keep dogs leashed to protect the fragile plants and nesting birds.

Perhaps we'll see you there,
