Are you curious about the natural world around you? Want to slow down and learn how to look for signs of the critters that call the woods home? Then Wednesday Wanders are for you. Come once or become a regular! Explore the wonders of the woods with Maine Master Naturalists Leigh Macmillen Hayes and Dawn Wood.
When: Every Other Wednesday (subject to change), 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Where: Locations will be announced each week, as the conditions will determine where we go. All locations will be in the Lake Region.
What to Bring: Sturdy shoes, warm layers, water, a snack, a sense of wonder and anything else you may need to be comfortable for a couple of hours in the woods. Walking poles are highly recommended for balance, as we often venture off trail.
Other things to know: We won't move quickly and we probably won't move far as we try to identify the plants and critters around us. Please leave pets at home.
How to Register: Click on the registration links below to register for each session you plan to attend. Space is limited for each session. An email will be sent out to all registered participants with a location the Tuesday prior to the Wander unless otherwise indicated.
Read Leigh's blog for a better understanding of all there is to see and learn when you join a Wednesday Wander.
